Might be able to get away with a rebuilt 10DN alternator to go to 60+ amps and use it to charge a Lithium-ion battery pack in the trunk to assist in running the compressor. It may not work for long haul trips, but for the usual cruise it may be fine. With enough engineering you may pull it off. I thought about getting rid of the trunk drop offs for air circulation for the condensers(two of them) and the evaporator pushing air out through a factory looking defrost vent. It would not work as well as the factory air setup, but might be enough for all but the hottest days.
