If you go to a local Auto Upholstery Shop, they can usually get you the headliner material and they have the glue that you can use to re-glue it with.
I haven't done a Rabbit, but I have done a US car or two. The issue is that the Foam material needs to be cleaned on the Cardboard, and I have used 100 proof Alcohol (paint supplier) to wipe it totally off. Test fit the material spray the board with glue and a little of the headliner with glue let it flash and then stick it on do sections at a time. Don't try to do the whole thing. If you go with a solid vinyl a hair drier will help to set the corners.
The solid Vinyl won't eventually pull away, as it is the foam that separates and causes the droop.
