While adjusting a phone/tablet mount in my Prime, I stupidly put a nice big scratch on the instrument panel/dash lens right in front of the left-side display (see picture below). Has anyone gotten a scratch on the lens in a Prime (or another car) and can give me advice how to fix/repair it? It seems to be made of softer material than the windshield so I don't want to do more damage trying to fix it like I would a windshield crack/scratch. Any advice would be appreciated!
Yup, it's a scratch (feel it with my fingernail) rather than a smudge I can wipe off. It's slight, but still very noticeable as you can see in the picture.

That is my fear as well. I might still try to give it a go, but I would be more confident if someone can confirm they've done is successfully before. That price is not too bad. Any chance you have a link to a video or instruction for disassembling the dashboard (if that becomes necessary for me)?
Any updates on this? i used alcohol to clean the instrument cluster on my 2012 Prius C and it left a stain that i can't remove. Never use alcohol to clean these things, they scratch way too easy.
