I don't see why it wouldn't work.

When I was looking into this, the problem really wasn't finding a heat exchanger, it was trying to find a way to disconnect the heat once the engine is warmed up.


FYI, there is some suspicion that the exhaust heat recovery on the Prius III that the new heat recovery system isn't quite as good as the Prius II's coolant thermos.
