I've had success in both work trucks and personal vehicles with sandpaper (800 grit, 1000 grit, 1500 grit and 2000 grit, in that order). Keep the lens wet while sanding.

For glass, I prefer the aerosol glass cleaner from Costco. Typically comes in a 4 pack.

 

On the windows I use a small amount of lemon joy in a bucket of water. Apply with a wet rag, remove with a mid size hand squeegee and dry around edges with a dry rag makes them crystal sparkling clean. Sun damaged light covers I've used rubbing compound with good results. I've also taken water mineral stains off of windows with rubbing compound with excellent results.
