is there just an thin aluminum film on the back of the lens to make it mirror reflective... or is that actually in the glass itself?
i'm wondering if i had some kind of heat source wrapped in thin copper wire, then just looped the wire that back and forth on the back of the mirror, if it could slowly heat the glass enough to melt ice/snow... ?
but i've never actually seen back there, so i have NO idea how much room i have to work with, or if thats even possible w/o destroying the mirror itself.

Several times a year my car gets totally coated in ice. and if i'm driving a longer distance, i'm stuck with only my rear view (which sucks w/ our B+C pillar blindspots) I'm not talking just your usual frost coating... thats easy to get rid of.
