    I just got my engine block heater from the Prius Chat store. It looks similar to the pictures I have seen, but it has a plug in connector on the heater end and looks to be made of cast aluminum. The instructions are for an 2007 Lexus ls460. Cast into the end of the heater is (PYR-01 Canada,400W 115v,LR20976) I'll try it and see if it fits. I'll also include a picture

    Installed it yesterday and only suffered minor abrasions. It fit like a glove. Every thing on Toyotas seems to be sharp.
    Plugged it in this morning and my first 5min mileage was up 30%(only plugged it in for an hour)
    Now I just need to set up my timer.
