You can find compounds especially for plastics.
Thanks for the reply. I took my Frau's 2001 Prius in for an oil and filter change today and I asked the "Service Writer "what they charge to clean those headlight covers. $75 !!! But he said they "Do a really good job." I hope to shout...for $75. I'm really cheap. I have fine grit rubbing compound in my garage. I might take a shot at using that on a tiny corner of one of the headlight covers to see how it works.
