Nothing will match to OEM 10 year old faded trim.
Only way to get a uniform result is to coat the lot.

Google vht vinyl dye, i've used it a couple of times and it looks really good and seems to last pretty well too

That's why I said "if you spray one half of lets say a brand new dashboard, will that half stand out?" Key word "brand new". Hence not 10 years old. I just wanna know if it has oem finish. In other word, will anyone be able to tell if it was treated?...considering you coat the lot

Just remove all the trim and say you have a Racecar should be fine after that you might even pick up some chicks or dudes up lol. But if it bothers you so much just go to a wreckers and buy the whole interior if having mis match interior finishes really annoys you.

Try wiping the panels down with a product called de-solvit. Most hardware stores sell it and it removes grease, oil and other **** like that. I can't see how dish soap and a soft brush could permanently damage the vinyl, it is plastic after all. More likely something applied to the vinyl after it was made like armour all or silicon wipes.

Wipe the de-solvit off with spray n wipe and then apply your favourite protectant.

WD40, rub it into an area that is damaged and see what happens.

Key word is VY, so not brand new.
Even if you had a brand new dash it won't match. They don't make specific colours just a general range.
