I finally found a product that works great to restore them. Mine used to be very hazy and looked bad, so I tried various products but nothing seemed to work.
Then yesterday I went to my local Schucks auto parts store and got some Meguiar's PlastX. It's a clear plastic cleaner and polish, and it works very well. I applied about a pea-sized amount to a wax applicator and rubbed it hard into the plastic on one half of the cover. Then I wiped it clean with a clean towel and did the other side, and now my gauge cluster is very, very clear and sharp inside the car. No more haziness at all.  I figured I'd post since I know I've had a ton of people ask me if my gauge cluster cover from the parts car is in good shape because theirs is hazy.

would that work for light scratches? I heard metal polish worked but I might have to try that instead
