I went out to plug in the celi for the first time the other day and I couldn't find the cord anywhere. I just assumed the GT-S models (canada) would come stock with a block heater, am I wrong?

Well, from my understanding, the block heater part is pretty cheap (~$25 Cdn-ish? $29 from Toyota) but it's the install that costs money since it's pretty time consuming.
I ended up having it down at a dealership since I didn't trust myself with it. The dealership charged me $130 Cdn + taxes and it took around an hour or two.
I think in putting the heater in, the coolent needed to be removed, as I got new coolent in my system (the coolent charge was part of the block heater install, so I assume it's necessary).
