I recently bought a 98 gs spyder and while I was putting the top up I forgot to put the handbrake on and something popped and now most of the inside headliner is loose and just hanging off everywhere if anyone knows how to tighten the headliner back up I would really appreciate it. Also I noticed that the weather-stripping around the windows looks excessive and I was wondering if this is factory or someone put that there.

Mine does that too. I think it is just part of the window folding down with the top. The headliner comes off the rear window every time I put it up with the old roof and with the one I had put on just over a year ago. Same with the sides, they're gonna sag a bit. I can't tell from your pictures if yours sags more than mine. As far as lessening the sag I believe that there are elastic straps that hold them back and they can get stretched or rot causing the sag.
 
Yea the pics don't really show how much it sags but its sagging really bad near the back and its only the passenger side but it wasn't like that before I tried putting the top up without the ebrake so all that pooping I don't know if it was all that elastic breaking or what
