OK, I sent an e-mail to Kat's, Titan, and Wolverine, asking for pricing to Europe. I asked for 230-250V, cable without plug, for oil pans (100-150W) and transmissions (60-80W), and maybe battery pads. I asked about batch orders (4-5 oil pan heaters and 3-4 trans heaters). I also asked if they know anything about customs fees.
If all goes well, maybe we'll have pad heaters for by winter's end
I didn't write to Moroso, since their e-mail seems to be well-hidden.
Vekke sent me a link to a company that makes oil pan heaters (
Phillips & Temro - oil pan heaters). These are heating elements that you mount
inside your oil pan - more efficient than heating pads, it would seem, but they advise:

To prevent damage to the heater and the engine oil, this type of heater should only be used to keep engine oil warm, not to warm engine oil that is already cold.
