Hose heater in Gen 4 was created by DlgVrg
I am preparing my Jimny Gen 4 for the winter and started installing electricity for a heater in the cabin. I'd also like to install a "hose heater" to have the engine a bit warmed up as well -- something like the

or the

My problem is that I do not know cars very well and do not know where the proper installation would be. The manual says at the lowest point and I think it is supposed to be right after the water pump and mounted vertically. Where is that on my Jimny? Anyone already done this mod an could share a picture or two?

Removed the rubber thingy and cut a hole in it to get the cable through into the cabin

Pleased with the location, nice and discreet
