I have one big dimple in the center of my plastic window and I've tried Meguairs cleaner and polisher without any luck.

I'm unsure what you mean by "dimple" but...

I had a few tricks that I used on my 2001.

1) Try bringing a pot of water to just less than boil and pouring that over the window. That will normally bring the window back in shape.
2) Try using a hair dryer. Just make sure you keep the hair dryer moving so that you don't burn it out or burn through the top.
3) On a hot day, leave it parked out side with the windows up. You'd be amazed how hot the car will get and that will often work.

I used the hair dryer trick a lot and it worked very well for me.

Good luck.

park it under the sun with all the door/window closed...leave it for 4-5 hours and it should fix most of it.
