06 XLT F250 Flip Down Monitor Help!!
 

I have a 2006 F250 XLT Super Crew. I want to add an in dash double din DVD and run a flip down monitor from it for the back seat passengers. Now I can see an outline in the ceiling where the previous owner had one at one point and removed it prior to selling the truck.

I cant do headrest monitors due to the fixed headrest. When I look at the head liner there isn't much of a flat surface to mount to the head liner has two drop down pieces, one at the dome light and one 8" or so to the rear of the vehicle.

Has anyone installed a flip down monitor in this vehicle or one similar? if so how did you get the head liner to secure to the monitor and not leave a gap?

Any advice and pics would be greatly appreciated. I'm looking at a 14" Tview TFT monitor from Car ID.

It's been awhile since I've installed one, but the units should come with a trim ring that you will have to modify in order to cover the gap that will be left once you have installed the flip down. You can either use the frame from the dome light or place a light piece of wood, such as 1/2" or 3/4" MDF, up into the headliner to screw to. You may have to use a spacer for the area where the headliner doesn't drop down.
