Well my rear defrost isnt working any longer. One of my buddys peeled my tint off the rear window and decided he was gonna scrape it with a razor to get the glue off and it took most of the defrost strips. I have about 5 inches towards the bottom of the window that still works. Any reccomendations on how to fix or how much a new rear window costs?

Roos85:

No idea on cost of a new window. You can call your dealership and ask if they sell an aftermarket defroster kit or you can search the 'Net for a kit. The typical repair kits for the rear defrost tape contain only small sections of defroster tape (like an inch long or so) so I think you are out of luck trying to repair the existing defroster.
