Doesnt it have to have an electrical connection!?!?

The defroster clip is an electonic connection that connects to the strips in the glass.

Yes it does for your defroster grid to work. Locktite used to sell a defroster grid repair kit that included a paint mask you put on the window to outline the missing grid area. There was also a special electrically conductive paint and brush-in-cap in the kit: you had to first clean the area to be painted with alcohol. You can probably get the kit at Peps Boys or Auto Zone. I don't know if the paint is strong enough to act as a "glue" for the clip, but you should definitely apply a layer of paint to connect the grid to the clip.

Awesome! I called up LOCTITE and they gave me a conductive glue. The part # is 21351. You can also use it to fix the strips.
