bought an 07 Suburban LTZ. Trying to smooth out all the kinks. The rear passenger side back window has defrost grid on it, but had no power running to the tabs. And I can’t seem to find anything online about a rear side window defogger. I’m trying to figure out if this is an actual option or an aftermarket window that doesn’t actually work. If anyone has any tips much appreciated

What about the heater grid on the back tail glass, is that for reaching Opportunity on Mars? Cuz it stopped working like last week. :p

Don't feel bad, When I bought my first nnbs ('07-14) last year I thought it was a defrost grid for that window also. It made sense, since the driver can only see that window and not the one on the drivers side. I quickly realized that it was the AM/FM antenna, and the shark fin on the roof was for XM and GPS for the nav system.

Since Opportunity was only designed to last 90 days but made it 15 years, I think you got your money's worth
