Ok grab some megs rubber n trim shine ( in a red bottle ) and a microfibre cloth say around $20 max apply product by appling to cloth and wiping the affected areas.

This product gets a deeper shine the more you apply but id say your going to needed a few coats just to bring some life back into it, so add a coat leave it for a day or so add another and so on until you have it the way you want it

baby oil on the cruise control buttons + demister switch seems to work. Read of plenty of people doing it on here.
