[s-cars] Is there a Bosch universal voltage regulator?

Gentz,

Short story, voltage regulator kicked the proverbial bucket last night,
fortunately for me it was on the side of the highway 75 miles from home.
My father came to my rescue bringing me two charged batteries, and I 
managed to drive it home.

Start calling around today looking for a replacement, NAPA tells me he can get an Ecklin VR1062 $76 tomorrow, or an Altrim 068903803B for $21
in 2-3 days.

Local FLAPS says they have the "Bosch universal" that fits "most" VW's and
Audi, in stock for $16.60

Anybody ever hear of this universal regulator? While speed of repair and
price are factors, not frying my car is also one!
