- where does the thing mount (lets say both the cab and block heaters)? My frame rail is pretty full.
It mounts under your bed, inside the sleeper. It's smaller than a shoe box.

- fires off diesel? A little electricity for a pump and fan?
Exactly. It has a low amp draw, and uses about 0.001 gallons per hour. That's a tenth of what an APU uses.

- same day service on the installation? Drive in, tell them what you want, wait a few hours, drive away with unit installed?
That I don't know, but the systems aren't that complex.

- costs?
Anywhere between $700 - $1000, assuming you can find a unit. Many places are sold out on them right now, and they are tough to find.
