The metal tab that attaches that to the glass has detached from the damn glass. It looks like it was either glued or soldered on. Is there anyway to reattach this?
That happened to mine a while ago. I soldered it back on. It took me a while though. I used regular electrical solder. Had trouble getting it to stick. Damn thing would always come loose after I let go. It would save a lot of time if you had someone help you. Maybe find a better solder also (silver solder). I have only heard of using silver solder on radiators though.

If someone is using silver solder on a radiator, they have a larger bankroll than me. Silver solder is actually made with silver and is much more expensive than regular solder. Most people use regular lead/tin solder for radiators. With the back window, There are safer methods than trying to connect it with a soldering iron. check this site out for an easier fix.
Well damn. While the last 2 posts came in I was in the garage. I did get it reattached with solder. I did also have trouble making it stick until i juiced it up with some flux(sp). Then it was all good. If this fails again I will try the glue.
HA HA HA HA. Same thing happened me. I didn't think of using flux when I did it though :headache: . Atleast it is back on there. Mine has held for probly 8 months so far.

Flux is a necessity when soldering. It allows the solder to flow better, adheres better to what you're soldering and it hardens better than if you didn't use it.
