fix defroster grid
I was a clutz while disconnecting the power lead from my strut and accidentally yanked the braided wire from the window on a couple of it's bonds.
It's the first two bonds from the passenger side terminal so it actually should't affect the grid itself because it's before the thin lines but, of course, I want to fix it.
I've thought of using conducting glue or just to super glue for it since where it seperated it won't affect functionality.

I think 5 minute epoxy would be the best. The stuff I've used is clear, so it won't be an obvious glob of some foreign substance.
Super glue isn't suitable for a repair like this. It relies on a VERY thin glue bond, which you only get with very flat surfaces and pressure.
