How to get under headliner after engine mounts

After putting in my engine mounts the vibration has been ridiculous inside. I noticed the vibration coming from right under the map light thingy next to the rear view mirror. Is there any way I can remove that part of the headliner so I can shove some stuffing in it without having to take out the entire headliner...

is it the lower engine mount ??? we had the same issue issue and just couldnt deal with it on the 06 MCS ... way to harsh - we ended up taking one side out and made a world of difference in the vibration but still seemed beneficial

I have all the mounts changed lol. Lower, Upper and Transmission... It's a pretty intense ride, but the experience is so worth it. I just want to find a way to lift the headliner near the reading light without having to take the whole entire thing off like the DIY. I have a 2006 MCS. The DIY has different instruments than I do... The vibration is only coming from one area. I'll check for openings in the headliner when I get my car back. new clutch...
