Restore interior armrest from UV damage?

[sto66]

I've got an old W203 and the armrest (centre console) surface has been destroyed by heat/UV. The top layer has gone brittle and rough.

I've got the anthracite/black interior.

What options are there to get it restored?

I've managed to acquire a spare, so I could send it off to be done professionally.

Anyone done this before/expectations/recommendations?

As something like this is probably an issue that affects multiple makes of cars, you might get a better response posting here:

Contact a trimmer... maybe have it retrimmed in stitched leather or wrapped in vinyl?
