I had the same problem. Sun seems to take its toll on them. I used standard polishing compound (not rubbing compound) and it worked great. I will have to say I did it by hand and the expended energy warmed me right up. They are however nice and clear now. I coated them with car wax when I was done.

Any kind of Mag or Aluminum or Alloy polish will work wonders (like stuff designed for polishing/buffing wheels) Just wipe it on with a rag and then buff it off with another clean rag. I just did this to my truck and the lenses almost match the corners now. Night visability was greatly improved as well.

My 95 was also plastic, as matter of fact I can't recall them ever having glass lenses. If they did I would. I've seen a number of people try some of the above methods to "clean" these lenses. The results never seem long lasting. I just get new ones when the need arises.
