If you are not too concerned about the appearance, you can try using a spray
adhesive to hold the headliner in place or go with option 3) above.

I thought about that, but I'd like something that looks better. She's
been a fine auto, and I like to treat her well. (I hope I'm not the

I'll probably run it by an upholstery shop soon and see what they can

Thanks for the reply, Ray.
