Well it depends on the leak, that should be the frist thing to adress not the fabric, but if its moldy then you might as well get a new head liner after you fix the leak, could cost any where from 200-600, depends on the job and person doing it

Just take it to a shop, it's not easy to do.

true. a friend of mine had an old grandam that leaked. it couldnt be fixed because of the rust. it looked like surface rust but it was deeper. would cost too much to cut out the roof and replace it.

You could always get a headliner from a junkyard. I would pull it apart if you can, and find the leak. Could be a clogged drain tube.

There is no point in replacing the fabric until you fix the leak. Check the around the sunroof, anything noticable as far as rust? or damaged seals?
