Hi Volks:

I personally like this idea, because in order to accommodate a handicapped
person, I need to have the passenger seat rotate and be accessible for
transferring from a wheelchair.

Therefore, any installation that is fixed to the floor behind the passenger
seat, would not work for us.

I also think this is the best idea I've heard of, regardless of my personal
needs. If it can fit into the door, one doesn't give up interior space, and
yet it provides a good central surface area for heat radiation.

OK I'll jump in here with an idea that might work.  Since you're starting
from
scratch, how about recessing the cat heater in the sliding door and vent it
out the door.  One might have have to have a easily detachable propane hose
but that would get the heater out of the way completely!!!!   Malcolm
