Looks like the headliner somehow got caught and pulled in between the window and top. Never seen that happen before.
BTW, it appears that the rubber weather strip on the deck lid is not installed properly. There should be a "L" bracket that it snaps to under the front lip of the deck lid. When I had mine replaced under warranty when new (it was split), the dealer installed it just like its shown in your picture. I had to re-install it properly myself.

A professional body shop (familiar with 'verts and probably easy to find in FL) is always the best way to go without the work looking 'wrong'. Yeah, it's never cheap but the alternative can be shoddy results that you see over and over again. Good luck!

Sadly none of the body shops in my county touch Conv't Tops. Apparently, only a few selected Upholstery shops, work on them. My best bet some to head to East Orlando which is 90 minutes IF no traffic. Why I am trying to temp fix it, till I can replace it next summer.
