I know they have the paint stuff for repairing small parts of it, but mine are pretty much completely ripped apart. Is there a way of repairing entire strips or large volumes of strips?

If i am not wrong those strips are made of copper. And you can get liquie copper and paint the missing spots. You might want to clean it with alcohal first.

Large volumns would probably be easier just to replace the whole window, or get one of those JCWhitney kits that adds electric rear defrost to american cars that don't have it already.

Ice, you dont ever miss a trick, do you? The Whitney kits work well. Their shipping sucks since they moved their DC from Chicago to the corn field past DeKalb.

Thanks for the replies. I'll shoot for the JC Whitney and see what they have. I don't want to replace the windshield because that means smashing it if I want to get it replaced for free. But free is free.

You might want to read your policy first.
Check for "comprehensive" and "deductible".
While you are at it - look up "fraud".

Lol....I know. I don't have a deductible on glass. It's all covered. And I don't really want to smash the hatch out anyway...but if it needs to be replaced, I don't have the 300 to replace it and that's what my insurance is for. I'm of course gonna try other things before my last ditch "fraud" effort, though with the amount of money my insurance company costs me, I don't feel to bad about getting it, plus it'll make up for the stereo amplifiers that got stolen and they wouldn't pay for :-)

it's only "fraud" if the insurance company "finds out" but yea lets try and keep things nice and legal here
