Question Headliner replacement/repair

I have a 2001 dark blue New Beetle in S Florida. Needless to say in the wonderfully hot climate we have (god I miss winter), dark blue absorbs heat like nobody's business and the headliner is hanging down from the roof as the glue has given up.

Anybody got ideas for:

1. Where I can get a replacement
2. How can I repair it
3. Has anyone else from the northern states seen this (as VW say nobody else has this problem - have seen at least 2 others in the last week that do

Ideas/thoughts/comments

Thanks

Do you drive w/the windows down any? Or maybe the sunroof open?

I don't know about the headliner. I knew this one shop that was trying to make fiberglass ones, but I think he only got a couple of them out.

I'm really not sure where you could pick one up. But maybe you could try some 3M spray adhesive. Or call a local upholstry shop; they'll have an idea I bet.
