Default Plastic scratches

Any good ways to fix scratches on my radio display, or the plastic surrounding the gauge cluster?

Try sanding it.

For your radio display I MIGHT have a suggestion. There is this product (cant remember what the brand is) but its called apple sauce. Its a 2 step solution that is supposed to minimize the appearance of light scratches on ipods. This might be something you could look into? I am not sure if it would work or how that stuff works but just thought I would pass on the suggestion???

Hmm, I'd be careful with that sanding on your gauge cluster.
I know that autozone has a product for foggy/hazy headlights.
They might have something that could help you out.

brasso does relaly well on ipods, would probably work ehre too, it's basically a metal polish that has a really really fine abrasive, probably equilivent to like 3000 grit sandpaper, i used it for removing scratches from CDs and DVDs, works very well

there is this kit you can buy for fixing your headlight lenses....uses really fine wet sandpaper (special sandpaper thats supposed to be used with water). I did my boss's truck and a customer's motorhome, and it works really well for plastic headlight lenses, but it is messy so I don't know if you want that stuff in your interior...but something to keep in mind if you need to fix up your headlights!
