Voltage regulator

Hi All, I'm dealing with all the butchered wiring on my newly acquired A4, the regulator (under battery box) has had the wiring butchered badly, so my question is should I replace it with the same unit or upgrade to a combi regulator/rectifier? if the later any suggestions for best place to buy. Second question, I have the same issues with the wiring with the stator, but I saw a replacement cable on one of the websites (Zpower maybe) how is this connector to the stator? any special tools needed.
Many thanks Phil

I replaced mine with an electrex world reg/rec, not the cheapest but better quality than most, you can buy the complete stator, or cable but you have to crimp the wires and sheath them.

Definitely ditch the standard regulator in my opinion. 40+ years old and made to last 10, fried wiring and battery if it goes wrong and overcharges (which is usually how they fail). The Devil's work, get rid.
