Drain all coolant. Locate the freeze plug nearest to starter; round indent metal piece between exhaust manifold & oil pan on side of block. Remove freeze plug (there are different ways to do this);

1. drill hole, put 1 size larger screw in & yank out with dent puller

2. drill hole, put screw driver in & pry it out

3. hammer/chisel it out

4. pound it into block and retrieve with plyers by turning 90 deg (some do this, but i dont recommend)

Then you insert the heater element and tighten with a wrench. Then you plug power cord into it & run cord to front of vehicle. Use zip/cable ties to secure power cord in several spots. Do no wrap power cord around suspension parts that will move & pull on cord. Its not really hard, just time consuming.
