Get an electric heater, put it in the passenger footwell and remember to turn
it on before you get out at night. Run an extension cord through the firewall
up to where the block heater plug is. Put a tee extension cord there and plug
both the extension cord and block heater into it. Now when you plug in the
block heater you'll plug in the electric heater inside the car.
When I first got my 240D back on the road it was very moist inside but cold
outside. I put a 1500w electric heater in it every morning for an hour before
work. That combined with my 1hr commute (each way) got the moisture out. At any
temp under freezing the car doesn't really get warm per say but it takes the
edge off and clears the windshield.

OK, thanks for the input guys. I can't justify the $$$ for the Webasto
unit, so I guess I'll just have to put up with the cold for another
month or so.
