Didn't know these existed on the 914. Just noticed it when unloading it off the trailer.  It does have a separate button for it on the dash, green background with a heating element logo on it, pulls and pushes. Anybody familiar with these rear windo defrosters? Thank you |

Yup, optional equipment. 2 out of 4 of my 914's came with the heated rear window.

My '70 1.7 has the rear window heater...never had a situation for it to be useful, even during two years in Green River, WY.

You've already got the factory option info. above - but as a heads-up, you find a ton of this type of info on p914.com ....
