TomO, I'm in St. Louis Park. A while back I found the thread you started in January '08 about installing the block heater in your Civic and that is what clued me into the fact that I could put this type of heater in my own car (which is essentially a Honda Prelude with more valves even though it's called an Acura Integra). Previous to that, I thought it would involve removing one of the frost plugs, which are probably completely inaccessible on this car. And like you, I considered installing one of those external tank heaters, but the hoses on this car are simply not arranged in such a way as to make that heater easy to install, and it probably wouldn't work that well anyway.
