You can try the stuff at Advance Auto that's supposed to clear up headlights. If that doesn't work, wetsanding will. As for the rust, I know that rear quarter panel is very common, never heard of windshield rust

i wet sanded my headlights with 1500 and then 2000 grit sandpaper, then used mcguires plastic-x scratch remover. looks good as new, but you have to re-apply the plastic-x every couple weeks or whenever you wash your car.

the rust in the top of the windshield is not on every lude, but at the same time seeing as you are from canada like me, it is not uncommon, my old 98 lude had it but my current 2000 doesnt, but the rear quarters are terrible on all hondas, not only preludes.
