Adhesive. Don't get it wet, the adhesive will fail.

It's held up with all the trim pieces that touch it: A-B-C pillar covers, rear window trim, mirror, sun visors and their clips, Ohshit handle, coat hook/hanger, dome light and then there are two push clips that hold it up........ be prepared to remove a good part of your interior to get it down/out....

Both. The adhesive makes it sit firm up to the roof. The trim pieces hold the edges.

The adhesive hols the cloth to the cardboard backround, but no adhesive holds the complete unit to the roof of the car.

go to the auto store and get two stray cans of it. Do half the headliner at one time

If your removing the headliiner to do dynamat then you don't need adhesive. the headliner (I meand the cloth and the backing for it) is held up like CarbonizedDX said, by the pillar trim peices and some push clips. You do have to take out pretty much every interior trim peice out because the headliner is the first to go in, which means last out. Since your doing dynamat you should already have the interior trim peices out anyway.
