should be easy to retrim it mate, its getting it back on that will take the time.
just measure it and get some fabric and some addhesive spray. you might want to get a stappler to hold the fabric down better but make sure dont go all the wau threw

get velcro.
its the easiest thing to get back on.
put one side on the metal roof, the other on the headlining.
then pop it in.
Can see that hardest part being the retrim as the headlining is just card like.
Best of luck. get some pics
