Re: 81 Tercel rear windshield defrost wire broke
i had it glued at a local car window shop once
they did not charge much
i know they used a special glue that electricity travels thru but do not know much else

Love those Tercell 4x4 wagons but they sure suffer from road noise.

You can also buy a kit aftermarket to reglue the wire too. It usually comes with a bottle of grid repair stuff too.
