    like title says, does anybody know how to get it off without breaking something?

    Basically I'm looking to see if there is a plug under there for the rear window defroster. I don't think it was working this morning and want to make sure the place that tinted my window didn't unplug it and then forgot to plug it back in.

    no plug besides the one for the light. The defroster wire connections are on the c pillars on the window.

    yup. I found mine loose from tint install. Unfortunally they tinted the entire window and didnt cut around the 3rd light. So its not fully bright with my 5% tint
