Alternator Upgrade

[DkxSpikee]

Hi everyone... I was wondering if anyone knows where i can get an alternator upgrade for my smart in california. I need way more amps in my smart to support my system but it seems like no alternator shop has dealt with a smart car before

alternator: 14v/90a

I'm thinking an alternator repair/rebuild shop should be able to upgrade your stock alternator for you.

hmm.. anybody know anyone else that has tried it? half of the alternator shops i called didn't even know what a smart car was.. which makes me worried because now I think even if i do find a shop that will do it.. I don't know if they will even kno how to get the alternator out

any help is much appreciated!
