Use a medium grit polish like Meguiars 105 (or similar) on it with a semi coarse pad. Move the steering wheel so you can fit it in. Then use a fine polish like 205 and a medium/fine pad. There are a million different polishes and pads.
Essentially paint correction on plastic. You can't do it by hand and get it perfect.
You can have a detail pro do it if you don't have the above. I've polished that crap from tail lights, dashes and consoles in many of my cars.
