On my 95 Defender , how do you switch on the heated rear window, on the dash on the sides you have the blower speed lever one side and the the 2 hot and cold levers the other side.
 
Below the hot-n-cold levers, level with the bottom of the steering column is a hazard switch panel with three rocker switches, Fog, Hazard, and Heated rear Windscreen.

Let me rephrase that, 'there should be a switch panel ....'

On my 96 its down by my knee next to the door(LHD) with a couple of others, RHD could be your other knee though ;)

As above.

In the pic in pic above its the one with three sperms swimming into a box.;)
That’s actually got a blank plate on mine there, there is some other switches fitted in the centre of the dash along with a touch screen, I’ll have to have a play with them.

I am going to be pedantic and say you only have the fog there if it is a newer vehicle. as in the pic you have posted it is the interiors/gauge lights as the third switch with the fog light in the correct place on the steering column opposite the headlight switch.

The heated rear screen is also not a standard fit to all vehicles even if they had a rear door, similar to the rear wiper, I think it was an option. Just because you have a heated screen does not mean you have the wiring for it at the dash. It should run off a relay rather than direct though the switch.

However I will say that although I have had one fitted and wired into mine for nearly 20 years I have never actually used it in my 110. the rear wiper does occasionally get used but even that is not often. So i would not worry too much about it if you don't have one or it doesn't work..
