I use the awful stuff your Aunt has in her home to protect carpet 
walk-ways, you know, that clear patterned vinyl stuff that comes in 
huge rolls at the fleet stores.  Actually, it installs very well with 
minor trimming and is not obtrusive.  At the rear edge, unscrew the 
OEM trim strip and place the back edge of the vinyl under that.  Then 
trim the parking brake area and up by the shifter.
