Engine Block Heater
 
I was stupid enough not to have that option on my car. My car is a manual so I really dont want remote start either.

Anyone know of the part number for an 07gt?

A howto for engine block heater would be awesome as well. Winter months idling at 1800rpm is not my idea of fun.

Any ideas are welcome.

living in South Florida there isn't much of a need for a block heater, but here are the removal and
installation instructions from the shop manual.
Removal and Installation
1. Drain the engine cooling system.
2. Disconnect the block heater electrical connector and position aside.
3. NOTE: Do not loosen the block heater retaining screw more than necessary for removal.
Loosen the block heater retaining screw and remove the block heater.
To install, tighten to 4 Nm (35 lb-in).
4. To install, reverse the removal procedure
Lubricate the block heater seal and the cylinder block hole with clean engine coolant to ease
installation.
Make sure the block heater electrical connector is routed and secured away from rotating or hot
components or damage to the cable can occur.
5. Fill and bleed the cooling system.

looks like it's located in the left rear of block
