Excellent critique and advice. Just curious however if any of that windshield rock chip repair/filler might work. Might be an inexpensive experiment before going to the expense of having new (tempered/laminated?) glass glass cut. Just a thought.

Glass polishing is labor intensive. If you have a lot of time on your hands 
go for it. Most polishing systems use cerium oxide and polishing pads to 
polish glass. What it does is remove glass to the lowest level of the 
scratch. The magic word here is remove. To over state what glass polishing is 
think of a piece of wood with a 1/8 inch gouge in it . to remove it would 
require you to sand the gouge away leaving a 1/8 inch divot in the wood. Glass 
polishing is a way to get people to spend money on a hope that it will 
work. If you remove glass from a window you will never get optically correct 
glass because you have to REMOVE GLASS to remove the scratch. Go to a local 
glass shop an have them make you new ones . HTH
