Instrument cluster window scratches way to easy.

Anyone else notice that guage window plexi glass scratches easy?

I wiped it with the softess cloth known to man, and it still scratched...

It gets dusty and I need to clean it... And now...I kinda want to replace it since the Ford dealer lubey really scratched it up when it got detailed...

Mine got hammered during a detail shop mishap and I would like to change it as well. Please reply back if you do it. I'd be curious about how hard it is.

Will do.


I think it may be easy since there are screws in that cowling/visor thingy that covers the guages...

Its the price of the window.

For future reference.

Compressed air for dust. For fingerprints, a foaming glass cleaner then compressed air to clean it off.
