Default Rear window defroster on 93 hatch???

Ok, the rear window has 2 clips on the top of each side. These clips are what triggers the defroster lines to heat up when activated. Well, I just noticed one of them had come off on one side. Can I just glue this back on? What would be the best way to fix it, winter time is near and it would suck if I couldn't defrost my rear window. TIA

I think you can just glue em back on. I remember reading that somewhere but don't take my word for it.

I know you just glue the tracers back on if they come off. (tracers lines run across the window)

Thanks. The tracers are fine from what I see. I'll try to glue it back on and solder it where the metal meets. Besides waiting for a foggy day or winter, what would be the best way to test to see if it works? Do the tracers get hot enough to feel when activated?
