Is there any way of removing these scratches?

I think a previous owner must’ve had kids!

I have only tried this on plastic headlight covers - and it worked there
Test it for yourself first somewhere inconspicuous

Plain toothpaste and a soft cloth, if the scratches are not too deep - but there may be a plastic anti-glare film covering the screen which will render this idea useless, and don't push too hard, it's a thin LCD under there!

Good luck. 2017 - L405 SC - WOW! just WOW!
2014 - L405 4.4
2010 - L322 3.6 - Carried me 100,581 miles then broke big-time

There are 10 types of people in this world;
Those that understand binary,
and those that don't.

You could try Pledge floor care. It’s like Klear of the old days.

Voilà:

-Take surrounding trim off with a plastic trim removing tool - ideally, unplug and take the screen off the seat.
-Sand down the surface of the plastic screen with 800 to 4000 grit with a soft sanding block until the deepest scratches are smoothed.
-Apply several thin layers of quality clear lacquer - ideally let cure and sand down to a smooth finish after every coat over a few days.
-Apply a last coat, let cure and polish - or for a factory look and anti-glare finish use a matt or sating lacquer for the last coat.

I would suggest doing the same to the second screen to make them look the same. l=Oo\________/oO=l l:OolΞΞΞΞΞΞΞloO:l

Try buying a matte iPad screen scratch protector and cut it to the size of your screen! Works on 2009> infotainment screens to get rid of the shiney finger marks! Gotta be worth a go! Thumbs Up

If it was me, my first port of call would be a breakers/eBay for a replacement - I imagine you could wait for one to appear at the right price? 2006MY 4.2 SC

put an iPad in front of it..... Thumbs Up

as its pretty much scratched to Censored then anything you try can't make it much worse. I would try some light car polish on a soft cloth. if the light polish doesn't work then try something slightly more abrasive, such as g3. There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜
