quick and dirty headliner fix?.... 700

If the fabric is still pretty intact, you can buy clear "push-pins" at the auto parts store, only that instead of a straight pin, it's bent into a screw thread so it stays and won't pull out.

Staple guns have been suggested too, but the force could crack the board.

While you can leave it bare, I would not suggest pulling the cloth off in the car, lest you be dealing with foam crumblets for the next few weeks ... or months ... or years. Depending on how often you'll be vacuuming.

And of course once it's out, then you may as well redo the headliner.
