Mount it on a plate, you can then seal the plate with a polyurethane sealant over the floor. Like these http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_odkw= ... e&_sacat=0

perfect
just had a look and that makes sense

also can I ask if I need to have a pipe on the inlet as well as the out let for the hot air, im installing under the rr seat and I have one pipe that goes onto the warm air outlet with direction nozzle but just wondering do I need to put one on the intake air to pull it from the cab area or will it be ok pulling air from under the seat

It depends upon how airtight your seatbox is, mine has holes in the end so that air is drawn in that way. If it is fairly airtight you could just put an unhosed vent in or connect it with a hose.

It can take up to 10 minutes for you to notice a drop in heat output using a rheostat.
