Windshield or Sunroof Leak Logic
Glad it worked out. I'm still dry after the fix I did.
This seems to be the place to go for the headliner. 1994-2004 Discovery I & II Headliner Material & Spray Adhesive [6] - $152.50 : Headliner Express
On my list of things to do. I've seems a few instances of the grey looking really good.
Post some before and after pics. Might spur me on to doing it.

A permanent repair to the sunroof leak woes is easy but very, very tedious, moreso if you have two sunroofs and rear aircon. Bearing in mind if done methodically and properly it'll be good for another 10+ years and no more headliner damage/drooping which is caused by water ingress and heat. Anyways, who needs silly sunroofs when the damned truck has aircon 
A guideline on repair times and costs: If done in a clear garage at home for 2# sunroofs it takes 7-10 hours depending on any problems. The costs for materials, 4# seals, 8 tubes of top quality silicon marine mastic, trim removal tools, pop rivets, replacement of broken clips etc £180 or $280. Well worth doing IMO.
Headliner recovering, 1 day whilst out and costs around £100 or $155. Another job worth doing IMO.

When relining the headliner adhesive and adhesion is super critical and there are many vids online on how to do it properly, well worth watching a few for technique as if you get it wrong it can be a real nightmare or worse, a PITA

........... overlapping around the edges onto the back is critical to stop the edges peeling later on. Leaks dealt with (tick), headliner relined (tick) problems with saggy headliner and leaks finished with for many years ........... a good job done
