That was the case for my scion. I had a canadian part number and could not get the part in the US. For the honda insight it was listed in all the brochures as an accessory. I ordered it online and the bracket for under 50 bucks. It replaced one of the screw in freeze plugs on the right side of the engine that faced the firewall. I guess I have a few blanks, didnt look or think. Since they are 400 watts I could do 2 more before popping the braker.
I experiment with a timer and using my sg2 to check engine temp. Seems the best use was 2 hours before driving. It speed up warm up time 2 minutes before the cold engine light went out.
When it got to 0 degrees the engine was 32. When its 32 the engine is like 100 degrees. Once started it cools some, then warms back up. I can not tell any hit t mpg, but it does make the car more comfortable to have heat 2 minutes sooner.
Yes, NAPA is the only place that sells all types of heaters, dip, magnetic, blankets, pads, etc.
