Sure - I'd use the type that mounts in a core plug hole. Webasto is the brand I've used in the past

Water 'tank' heaters are generallly more effecitve, but they may be hard to find.

Default Silicone heaters are easy to install and work well

Default Wow, wish they had that when I was, um, "younger". Can't tell you how many block and tank heaters...
I've installed.

Default looks like a very viable option
i just worry about it retaining heat in the summer...at the track. looks like it might be easily enough removable.
