Perhaps polishing might get rid of the scratches. Maybe worth asking Polished Bliss.

I've got these on two of my windows as well, exactly as described, like 2/3 the window length. When me drivers windows down the door rattles a lot so I think there must be something knackered guide wise which is maybe causin the scratch too?
As asked, how much has anyone paid to replace the runners etc?
