Use the old one? Any reason that wouldn't work? Or, do what I did, and buy some vinyl (just got black again in my case, w/ yellow thread to match my interior) and trace pattern from old one, and cut + sew a new one. Actually, I had my stepmom sew it for me, but, you know..its all good. Looks just as good as all the ones out there people are charging $30+ to send ya. 3 bucks worth of vinyl and half an hours time. Did the same with the glovebox, redid it in yellow vinyl. Looks really darn good I think. Took off the old one, wrapped it around, and its set.
