An Aussie-made towbar?

Hayman Reece does them. The Australian-spec Genuine towbar is made in NZ by Best Bars, if that counts.

Suspect you have to add the VW wiring kit to the Hayman Reese . Their web site doesn't list a bar for the Tig.

I note that the Best Bars site says you have to add the genuine wiring kit.
From talking to my VW dealer the bb seems to be a hitch receiver type bar
Does anyone have a photo

are the BB and HR hitch receivers compatible

Emailed Hayman Reece and got a reply email on the 30th of July. They said they are working on a design for the Tig and hoped to have it ready in 8 weeks from the dated email.
The eight weeks is just about up, I should be told when they have one in production and I'll be sure to let everyone know.

Interesting.

I'm pretty certain one of our customers has a Hayman Reece bar on his. I'll check into it during the week.

Does anyone know whether VW are bringing in the rear sunshade for the Tiguan or whether it's a one piece item? I've got the rear side window screens and they fit so well and don't flap with the windows open - no more baggy window socks. I looked on the German website but there weren't any details in regards to dimensions and it's difficult to phone them when you don't speak German.

Tried Google Translate?

Got a link for me I can look at? I speak German

Never mind: I just found it on the German Site. Here is the link: http://www.volkswagen-zubehoer.de/sh...ckscheibe.html
It comes in a set of 3. One shade cloth for the back and one each side for the rear side windows in the boot area.
Unfortunately they don't post this item, even within Germany. You will have to pick it up at the dealer of your choice.
There are no dimensions given other than it is cut to size to fit the Tiguan.
