I polished mine using Meguiars Plastic Cleaner and Polish products and my Porter-Cable dual action polisher. This took all of 20 minutes and my lenses are as clear as new.
I don't think the argument that you are going to remove the UV coating if you polish the lenses is really that valid. If the lenses are clouding, you have already had the coating fail--so deal with the problem.
This is hardly a problem isolated to Saab--I've seen cars ranging from Fords to Hondas that suffer far worse UV damage to their plastic lenses then my 4 year old 9-5 (which spent its first three years in Southern California).
