Clear View (CV) defrosters can be used to replace severely damaged defrosters that are not repairable using Frost Fighter repair kits. While Clear View kits need to be installed using the kits bus bars and tabs the vehicles existing wiring and switches can be used in most cases.

Can I scrape off the old defroster? Do I need to?
If your putting a Clear View kit into a vehicle that had a defroster the rear window will have the original grids on the glass.  Installing the Clear View kit requires that the glass be CLEAN so it is a good idea to remove the old grids. The vertical side bars can stay in place. Sometimes the old grid will come off with a razor blade and be gone and sometimes the old grid's conductor will come off but there will be a brownish red tint in the area of the lines and that's in the glass so it is not going anyplace.

Will the Clear View kit match my old defroster on my car?
Will the lines match up? It is not likely that the Clear View Defroster will match your existing vehicles defroster in spacing or layout. If tempted to remove grid lines the rule is that the number of grid lines and lay on the Buss Bars MUST be as shown in the instructions.
