Alternator amperage

[Colinyuk]

I was in the middle of ordering the usual replacement parts, (door lock actuators, window motors, ect ect) and I was going to replace the serpentine belt but dont know if I have a 105 amp or 130 amp alternator? Is there an easy way to tell?, and any advice on the subject would be appreciated.
Thanks

Sorry to dig up an old post, but had a quick question:
I know I have the KG8 code, but how can I find which ID number I have? Are all the 130 amp alt's interchangeable?
When searching the web I find a few part options including:

(130 amp), ID 10480390
(130 amp), ID 15750871
(130 amp), ID 15755900

Thanks!!
