You might have better results measuring the voltage as you're driving, not stationary. When I had a bad VR, volts were good engine off, at idle and 2000-2500 rpm. I only saw it get into the danger zone after I started driving the car - half way down the block it jumped to 16V. I just measured it at the cigarette lighter with a pigtail I made from a 12 volt accessory cord and my meter.
I believe that when the regulator goes bad it'll be high voltage, not low.
