Local Source to do Inverter Change Out

I would like to change out my modified sine wave inverter with a new pure sine wave inverter of a little more wattage. Does anyone have a source in the Cincinnati Ohio area where I could go and have that done. I'm not very electrically savvy. Just looking for an outfit that knows what they're doing.

Bump... 50-75 mile radius around Cincy would do me just fine. Thanks.

Mike,
I would think that a good electrician or a RV service tech would do this for you, if you are not capable of a DIY. (It wouldn't be difficult to swap out). Have you looked local for a RV service facility or even an onsite service tech?

Thanks for your reply. I do have one place locally that I will contact. I was hoping that my MH service provider could do it but they declined. (I appreciate their honestly.) The issue is that the footprint of a replacement inverter is going to be different causing an undetermined reconfiguration of the bay where the current inverter resides. And that is a fairly tight place with bundles of wires. Maybe I shouldn't be so reticent to start tearing into things, but I know what my knowledge of electricity isn't. I want the job done right and the end result to be safe.

What replacement have you chosen that reconfiguration is necessary?

The inverters that I have looked at so far (pure sine wave) have a longer footprint than my current Tripp-lite modified sine wave unit. The Tripp-Lite is much more square at it's base. My MH is out for winter serving, so I can't look at it for the moment, but the real estate where the Tripp-Lite is mounted is pretty tight.
