+7FYI: It's probably way too late now, but I just uploaded the DegreeFormatter to the FME Hub.
With this custom transformer, it should be easy to deal with these kind of problems. Handles multiple attributes at once and is able to work with latitude, longitude or latitude-longitude coordinates without having to use regular expressions (although it does use them under the hood ;)).
