Reversing Camera on MY2012 Tiguan

[NZTiguan]

Hi all, i was reading this thread with interest since I also have a 155 Tig on order with a factory fitted RVC. Having read the notes here I called up my dealer yesterday (Chatswood Classic Cars) and asked them the question and if they can clarify where the camera is fitted. I was told that the Tigs don't have the model thats fitted to the boot release lever similar to the Golf, Passat etc.

I have not been able to find any other information, pics or video showing the pop out fitting on a tiguan. Would have been nice to have though.

I don't think you'll find pics or a video of a pop-out camera on a Tiguan because there ISN'T ONE. As I said before, every Tiguan I've heard of to date, all over the World, including 2012 models that has the reversing camera, has it in the boot release. IF that's changed it's VERY recent and I've certainly seen nothing to suggest that's the case. Unfortunately sales people are probably the worst people possible to answer these questions !!

NZTiguan, thanks for the response. And fully agree, sales people maybe the worst to answer such questions.

Thanks again.

Hi all,

I took delivery of my Tiguan last week and can confirm that the factory-fitted RVC in MY12 Tiguans is attached to the boot release, not the rear badge as previously stated by the salesperson I've been dealing with. It does however, comes with movable projection lines, which provide guidance when is comes to reverse parking.

Cheers,

Ditto. The Golf's VW logo is also a boot release latch. The Tiguan's is not.
