Solder connector onto back window ok?

[BarraSSRX]

Hiy
Just wondering if any of you have experience of fixing broken connector on back window re demister?
I took apart the back door and found two breaks - the main wires were broken but so was one of the connectors onto the window itself, I'm wondering if I can solder it back on without the window breaking...
Bit worried about trying to solder so thinking I could make some kind of a clip that would just tighten around base of window and hold connector in place.
Any advice appreciated
Cheers

I've never tried it - and maybe someone who has will be along to correct me in a minute - but I'd be very wary of soldering onto the glass, even if you dropped molten solder onto it and didn't touch it directly with the iron, I'd be reluctant to subject the glass to that much heat.

If you're experienced with a soldering iron, a repair should take less than a second, so shouldn't stress the glass. If on the other hand, you only have a plumbers iron and ham-fists available, I wouldn't try.

25watt iron and solder with the fulx in it, fibreglass pencil the two areas of metal then as Apache rightly says 1 second contact with the heat and solder and it's done.

Otherwise leave it alone.
