My 2 year old did the same thing. I bought a kit online, but don't remember the name of it. And I haven't used it yet. Let us know what you use and how it works.

Hey, I used my kit this past weekend. Seems to have worked pretty good. The instructions recommend curing at 150-200 degrees F for 20 min. I used a million candle power Q-beam spotlight to heat it. With the whole lift gate open, I placed the Q-beam on the outside of the glass over the tab and then put a meat thermometer on the inside of the glass between the glass and the rubber seal. The Q-beam easily got the glass up to 200 so I had to stay close by to switch it on/off and regulate the temp.
