Re: how to make console shiney again?
While I had my console out, I "Professionally" reconditioned it using DIY.
I stripped the whole thing down, gave it a wash with some tri-sodium phosphate then rinsed it off with the garden hose. I then sprayed the whole thing in Krylon Fusion SATIN black spraypaint and adhered some carpet to the sides. Once back in the car I hit it with some meguiars and presto no more faded console. You can't even tell it was painted.

Yes @FireDemmonSic has right, repaint it, there are several threads about properly prep and paint,
