i believe the connection is behind the A pillar of the rear windows (dont know what its really called). i'm pretty sure i saw it there when i was doing audio stuff. you basically have to take off the plastic panel on the upper sides of the rear window.

if the shop scratched one of the deffroster "lines" on the window it will not work and the only way to fix it is to replace the back glass! (ouch $$$) i would take it back to them and tell them that the deffroster is not working and you want them to fix it. the fedral law states that when a vehical is in an accident it must be returned to pre-accident condition. remember man, the squeaky wheel gets oiled.
