    You might want to shop around for that Webasto heater. $600.00 installed is what I paid.

    P.S ceramic heaters ran off a gas generator is a lame setup.
    Have fun messing with that in the cold and snow.

    I have messed with it in the snow for years. I took the money I saved by not buying an APU and bought the wife a new Jeep. When my heater quits I go buy another. Not take the APU to some parts changer and spend $$$ Everyone has opinion as to the best answer, mine is the cheap way.
