my gf has an 01 convertible and the rear defroster terminal has fallen off of the grid. Before i bust out the soldering iron or the cheap fixes, does anyone have any experience repairing these. I have never had a car with this problem and would like some background before i try to fix it. Much appreciated.

Doesn't JC Whitney make after market ones?

would that work for the contact tab as well?

I think that's for repairing the grid.
If you haven't found anything yet check frostfighter.com and check out their tab kit, part no. 2000

thanks mach ill give that a try, better than replacing the glass, cause to be honest, in a cloth top convertible i just dont trust anyone to make it water tight and asthetically pleasing again. Ill keep you updated, thanks again
