Scratched Radio Glass

Hey there- Is there a way to repair a hairline scratch on the head-unit glass, or do I have to replace it all together? Either way, can someone please point me in the right direction? Appreciate any help!

It's not glass, it's plastic. My wife hit mine with her diamond ring in two places too.
Try polishing it with jeweler's rouge - you can clean up most all clear plastics including your watch face that way.

yea in my 04, i got some minor blemishes that look permanent on the panel above the Navi screen that shows the clock and radio info. any suggestions for that?

I tried using glass cleaner on a Q-tip, but only made it worse.

Unfortunately, I had some body work conducted on my '08 TSX recently, and when I got it back it had a film on the clear plastic radio face and hvac control face. I called Meguiars and asked for a recommendation for polishing -PlastX - worked perfectly - a little light rubbing with a microfiber cloth and minor wipe afterwards and it is as good as new - clear and smooth.
