How to fix saggy headliner on Jaguar PistonHeads?

What kind of headliner do I need for my Jaguar XJ40?

What’s the problem with the new headliner material?
The new headliner material that you get now is much thicker and appears to have a kind of foam backing. This is much easier to re-glue and the risk of a wet-through is less. The problem with original biscuit boards is that if you remove all the material, it will probably break up and you’ll face having to replace the lot.
