In what I have seen, Westfalia doesn't mount stuff to the ceiling, per se,
but to the reinforced 'rails' along the sides of the ceiling. It would be
difficult to drill through both the rail, and the outer skin of the van, so
don't sweat it.

How does one safely attach things (like hanging shelves) to the ceiling?
I've seen some just drilled in but being a novice I'm afraid of wrecking my
van by drilling all the way through.
