Block Heater install on B7500

[TractorAddict]

Has anyone ever installed a Kubota block heater on a B7500HST? If so, what was the cost? Was the job easy or an opportunity to invent new cuss words?

bought mine with my 7500 hst 6 months ago....give me a week or so and I'll post pictures of my install...does not look to be difficult at all. Price = 30$

I installed 1 a year ago and here are some observations:
1 - You will need a 17mm allen wrench attached to the largest leverage bar and a whole lot of muscle to break the factory plug loose.
2 - The heater will need some good thread seal, mine leaked the first time I installed using the teflon tape.
3 - The cost of the heater was $55 with shipping from Carver.
Again, the hardest thing was removing the factory plug. Good luck.
