if you want the headliner look( the right way) there is no way around it take it down. You have to remove all the trim pieces. head to a chick fabric store and either get yourself new headliner material or a thick fabric. You will also need some heavy duty spray glue they sell it at the fabric store.
I just did mine last weekend along with an overhead console swap in.
I went with the military issue fabric.

I did the same as XJUSMC. Got my glue from auto zone. They have a glue designed just for headliners. Make sure you scrape all of the old foam off real good. Its really easy, just messy.

bedliner is cool but i dont know about all the extra noise it will add without the soft sound dampening headliner, my jeep would make my head buzz like a bee everywhere i went. bedliner on the floor is sick though, with some custom drain holes... hose the whole jeep out :P the bedliner on the floor is my next splurge.
