Off topic a bit......
My rear slider had to be replaced, as my latch broke first time I opened the window. They don't make any parts for the latch, so they replaced the whole Slider . My Dealer got Ford to replace it, plus my 3rd brake light cause it was filling up with water.

I think the 2012's have the new design.

Same here. But I pulled the fuse that powers up the rear defrost grid. That way I can still use the heated side mirrors but no power goes to the back window.

It's fuse #32 in the engine bay junction box (40 amp). I just popped out that fuse and now when I push the button, just the side mirror heaters work since they are on a different circuit.

Thank you. I didn't look at fuses under the hood, just the ones in the inside box.
