You could try just wiring up a standard little 120v electric heater. Resistance heating elements don't care if they have AC or DC flowing thru them. A 1500 watt heater on 120v would be roughly a 150 watt heater on 12v. I would think that might be about right to warm up the foot area under the dash.
