Which part would you brace more? More screws or more existing angle iron?
I have mine pre-drilled for two screws and I left a lot of metal for the time being.

the hand set bracket is riveted to the roof support that cross at the B pillars. as you can see i have no head liner. the hand set sits directly between the 2 front seat head rests.

I don't have a headliner either. I really like the way that looks. Does it whip you when you wheel?
