Holes in headliner

I am going to be mounting some new deck hardware, including a winch. I have a fiberglass headliner. I will have to cut some huge holes in the liner. Looking for suggestions on how exactly to attach a wood patch to cover the hole.

Those look pretty slick. However, I have a wood plug covering an original deck fitting and was thinking I would stick with the same theme. The question is, should I use the wood plug itself for the backing plate (probably not a good idea), or use a SS or aluminum plate with a wood cover somehow attached on top?
