Depending on how bad the scratches are MeGuiars makes various polishing compounds for "clear plastic" that work well. http://www.meguiars.com/estore/product_list.cfm?sectionname=Consumer%20(Meguiar's%20Brand)%3EClear%20Plastic%20Care&sectionID=15101 ...

He used a very fine wet and dry sandpaper and then progressively fine buffing compounds. Cost me $60 but looks almost perfect. A huge amount cheaper than a new windshield.
