    Rear window demister repair

    Hi people
    Can anyone please tell me if it's possible to solder the electrical terminals back onto a window? That is without spot heating the glass & hearing a nasty "crack"!
    I've pulled the tailgate trim off the Freebie for when the glass lift repair kit arrives and noticed one of the connectors for the window demister has come off so might as well do that too while it's apart.
    Cheers
    Mike

    Rather than solder I think I would be using "conductive" glue that is available at electronic shops.

    Thanks Garry
    I had no idea there was anything like conductive glue!
    I'll check out Jaycar or "Richard" Smith's
    Cheers

    Repco and Stupid Cheap sell a proper one to repair demisters too. At last look it was about $12 a tube.
