I'm looking to buy a gasoline heater for my nine-one-four.

i live in colorado and drive my car year round.

Does anyone know where to get one? The newer the better.

If it could fit somewhere in the engine compartment or under the engine sheetmetal, you could just connect it to the factory hot air ducts in the longitudinals. I haven't been able to see where to fit it though.

The Espar Airtronics does look like a nice, clean, self-contained unit, but it is somewhat pricey.
