what can i do?

i have no headliner on the inside, so its just metal. when it is cold water builds up and drips onto my seats. is there anything i can put there until im able to get a headliner? i was thinking about using the duramat stuff, i dont know if that would work or not?
do any of you guys have/had this problem, what did you do?

Don't recall this before. You have to be leaving the windows down near some place that a lot of moisture is gathering and condensing to do that.

Not knowing any more, my first response is change your parking habits. A headliner is not the answer. IMHO

Do you have a carpet? If so maybe that's getting wet and causing moisture inside. Also would something like a spray on undercoating or insulation solve this problem of moisture on the ceiling

yes, if the carpet is wet there will be too much moisture in the cab
