you may be just effed, in that department, the plasssstic in these cars scratches so easily, do what i do do not wipe it off, use one of those california suters, they seem to work well.
and get that meguiers dash stuff to wipe on it then to brighten it up. but do not put it on the extreme top of the dash if it is shiny it reflects the sun like a *****.

You can use Meguiars plastic scratch remover followed by plastic polish. These are sold in your local auto supply. Sorry I can't remember their numbers.
