need source for a fuel heater

Hi guys, I need a source for a new fuel heater complete for my '90 f250 lariat. I've been on line for hours but I can't locate one. Any info would be appreciated. Merry Christmas.

What type of heater?

The factory heater in the filter housing is nearly useless. 50 watts isn't going to do much.

Thank you guys. I actually managed to break the part that protrudes thru the housing, and my ford dealer wants way too much money for what it is. So I'm going to tap the hole and put a pipe plug in it, and then modify the heater assembly as necessary to put the filter back on.
I was reading older posts and it really helped me with this issue. I live is so cal so I don't think I'll ever need the fuel heater. Thank you again.
