The cable connector has become detatched from the heated rear window on my
110. Is there some sort of glue that will conduct electricity thaI can use
to refix the connector?

You can get a special conductive paint (sorry, can't remember the name)
specifically for repairing broken elements in HRWs. Maybe that would do it?
Motor accessory shops would be my first port of call.

Not if it's become detatched from the glass!

I don't think conductive paint will glue the connector back on to the glass.
What you need is silver loaded epoxy adhesive. I don't think Maplin's do it,
RS components do, but they are not cheap, I am sure someone knows of a
cheaper source.
