Fairly sure the headlining will fit but..............

there's a lip on the inside of the sunroof tray that the 7xx headlining wraps over and is then secured with the single seal/trim. On the 9xx, this hole for the sunroof on the tray is slightly bigger, also the 7xx version points upwards on the overlap bit that the 9xx doesn't have.
That means you'll need the 9xx seal/trim that has two channels, one to go on the sunroof tray and you'll have to use a nibbler or simiar to take off the lip/overlap bit so the seal/trim fits as it should.

The 960 headlining is a lot thicker (about 1/4") and both secure to the roof with a clip that slides backwards into a hole near the interior light so you have to take the headlining further forward than is right and then slide it back to engage this clip. If you don't, it sags in that area around the interior light.

As for the glass sunroof, no idea but glass sunrooves can be very distracting, especially driving through trees in bright sunlight.
