Maybe condensation plays a part. In cold weather
a lot of water forms on the underside of the metal roof
* and some of it ends up on the upper surface of the headlining. If you unclip the front interior lamp cluster and shine a torch in you can sometimes see it.

* Particularly the three sections between the cross-members).
The only cure I can think of is to cover the underside of the metal roof with self-adhesive foam sheet. The factory fitted two pieces of sound-deadening foam on the rear section and I've noticed that no water ever forms on them. Foam sheet won't work on the cross-members though because of their shape.
