My Car: 2008 Prius Package: #3 Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTM Awards: 0 Friends: 0 | I would like to be a part of a new group order for the Plug-In Block Heater, but only if Fire Engineer (Wayne) can install it. My husband is not mechanically able to do the install himself. We live right outside Indianapolis, IN. Please let me know when the order will go in and if Wayne would be able to install. We are going on vacation from Oct. 12 to Oct. 28. Other than that, we would be available by the end of September. Thanks. Blue Hoosier |

My Car: 2004 Prius Package: #9 Nominated 1 Time in 1 Post TOTM Awards: 0 Friends: 24 | you'll need to keep an eye on the forum to look out for the next group buy as it's very unlikely anyone will remember to contact you. Since Indianapolis isn't all that far from Chicago I'd encourage you to make the effort to go to Wayne (aka FireEngineer) for him to do the install instead of waiting for him to come to you...He's been exceptionally kind to make his way around the country, but I don't think it's fair to expect him to continue to come to other people's homes. Also, I bet there are a few people there in Indianapolis that are quite capable of helping you with the install as well. |

I was planning on asking Wayne what he would prefer...us go to him or if he was making another trip. We would appreciate any help, no matter where it was. I'll keep on checking. Thanks for the response. Blue Hoosier | |

My Car: Package: Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTM Awards: 0 Friends: 0 | Blue Hoosier, Did you get in on the last group buy? If not, how about we watch for the next one together? If I see it, I'll let you know. I'm in southern IN and could head your way (or Chicago) for the install. |

Milhouse, Wayne will be making a stop in Indy on October 6th while on his way to Cincy so if you can get your hands on one before then by all means come on up. I know at one point Blue Hoosier had an extra block heater, but I don't know if that's the case anymore. | |

You can call Burnsville Toyota at 1-800-448-5912. They will ask you what model of Prius you have because the newer ones are a different part number. Good luck. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(milhouse @ Sep 20 2007, 07:50 AM) [snapback]515187[/snapback]</div> Quote:
I did not get in on the last group buy, I ordered it from Prius Chat Accessory Shop for $59.00. If you want to try to order a BH for the group install on Saturday, October 6, you could try the Milwaukee Hybrid Group (don't know their e-mail, maybe somebody else can help with that info), or call Burnsville Toyota in Minnesota, telephone #1-800-448-5912. They would probably have to order one for you, but maybe it would come in before October 6. The group install will be at my house on October 6 and you are more than welcome to come if you get a BH before then. I had two of them, but I think one of them is sold already. Let me know how you come out.

I've heard the Milwaukee install is in Pewaukee on October 13 & I'm not sure if extra EBH were ordered at the time of the group buy. |
