Hi,

I use a Coleman black cat heater. It works fairly well. You have to
watch out
where you put it. On top of the kitchen lid is not a good idea  since it
is to
close to the above gutter. On the floor is the best place I used so far.
In
addition I do not use at night perhaps I should get a carbon monoxide
detector.

or try this site for some ideas:

The heaters described on this site have to be located outside the
Westfalia.
The warm air is blown in through door/window????.
