Re: rear hatch defroster repair .
I you look around on the internet you will find quite a few products to repair rear defrosters. I used the Loctite one on my suburban. There are two types, one for the grid and the other is for the tab. I'm thinking you will need both.

Your best bet might be to find a new hatch.
