Default Installed new t top headliner, removed dome light..need fix

I gutted my car and redid everything, installed a new t top headliner but never installed a dome light. I used the existing wiring for my powered rear view mirror. After installing the visors and seatbelts, there is a sag in the middle since the dome light took up the slack. What can I put in its place to keep the headliner tight and in its place? Do they make LED battery powered dome lights that I can attach to the roof? Any suggestions?

Thanks

There should be holes in the roof structure for push retainers. I know that my headliner has one for the actual middle of the headliner, between the t-tops, and one that would be covered by the dome light. You can pick them up from the parts store for cheap, just look in the Help! section.
