Apparently, one of my friends took the liberty of scraping off a huge chunk of my defrost grid including the top/driver side portion - which is the FM radio antenna. I confirmed this with the multimeter - open circuit.
Anyone have any cheap recommendations to repair my grid? There's probably a 2-4 inch break across half a dozen lines...

Was he removing tint? The tint on my rear window is a bit too dark and blurry for my taste but I'm afraid removing it will damage the grid lines. Somebody sells some conductive paint you can use to repaint the circuit lines on the glass. Maybe ask at your FLAPS.

No, my car has zero tint. I think one of my friends was extra fidgety (I took pics of my car when I first got it and everything was fine - it was obviously damaged by a passenger).

Weird. Obviously he did not watch the preflight video.

I don't have a recommendation, and hate to hear this. But I do have a warning. I had really dark tint that needed removal, had it removed by a shop, and the next time I used my rear defrost, my window imploded. Glass everywhere. I'm connecting the dots here, never knew for sure that the wires were damaged. (I never listen to the radio in my car.)

+1, I only have suspects at the moment - no definitive evidence of the culprit, but I'm ready to lay the smackith downith.
Woah! That's crazy. I've never heard anything like that happen. If my glass explodes, I'm really going to be infuriated.
