I took these numbers from the EPC for my C43, which has the black/gray two tone interior. I can confirm these numbers from my receipt next week (I don't have access to it right now).
Used parts may be an option although how long they will continue to hold up is unknown.

Well, Knock on wood, Mine is holding up very well and I think a contributing factor to sagging is extreme heat, so rolling your shade back if its going to be parked in direct sun for long periods and cracking windows may help, Heat is usually the biggest culprit in all interior aging. If I was in your postition I would scower dismantlers for a used one.

My 99 Accord has 270k miles, has been a southern car for a long time, and sits in the sun all day, every day. The clear coat is pealing on the roof and fenders, but the headliner is fine.
The 90's were a funny time with all of the environmental concerns in regards to manufacturing. The paint from the 90's tends to suck (though my C43 looks great) and I wouldn't be surprised if they had to use some more environmentally friendly spray adhesive that just doesn't hold as well. Who knows.
