Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

Hi Gary, I've seen those lights on Alibaba a few months ago and immediately took a disliking to them (not surprisingly
) so my search goes on. My initial fears are that that no manufacturer will want to even design any after-market LED lights for the pre-facelift Tiguan now that the new model is out. I do, however, think that if we send enough emails to Dectane then they may be tempted to build a version that looks identical to the Golf R lights. My common sense tells me they would most likely decline the offer as it would cost them too much money for all the tooling costs to set up their machinery for a new light, and would need to sell at least a hundred sets to break even.

Hi Gary, very interested in the exhaust mate. Can you give me details on cost and compatiblity with the DPF please and if it was a straight forward fit?
Not too sure about the bonnet stripes though.

Thanks mate...just added a TRD similar to sprint booster to my tig today...boy i must say it totally transformed my ride to another level...it comes with 21settings instead of the 3 by SB...loving it n trying each setting now...its fun but my fuel consumption also suffers at d same time...now i really need the BBK installed sooner rather than later to tame this beast...lolOriginally posted by HaywireTig View Post2012 CW Tiguan 155kw 7spd DSG | Keyless Entry with Push start | DCC/ACC | RNS510 | Osir Front lip | Custom Exhaust with quad Remus tips | Caractere Rear Spoiler | Maniac CF p-shifter extension | Sports pedals | 19" Breyton GTS AV w 245 45 Dunlop SportMaxx TT | S3 intercooler | K&N drop-in filter | Eibach prokit springs | ABT Front Grill | Whiteline rear 24mm Swaybars | Eyelids | ABT Stage 1 Piggyback | Cosworth 4pot 355mm slotted BBK | TRD aka Sprint booster with 21 settings |Comment

mate...its a custom catback exhaust...cant give u much details as i just went to a famous exhaust shop n tell them what my preference for exhaust note for my daily n long distance driving use....so far it adds a bit more bass n my tig finally farts like all other GTI during hard acceleration...haha!! but the good thing is it doesnt drone or make u crazy during highways run n constant speed after 120km/hr...loving it so far...Originally posted by Naresh View PostHi Gary, very interested in the exhaust mate.

back to the installation part...its a day job in the workshop as it has to be measured n welded according to our tig's underbody setup...i didn't change the downpipe though...keeping my car warranty intact for time being...2012 CW Tiguan 155kw 7spd DSG | Keyless Entry with Push start | DCC/ACC | RNS510 | Osir Front lip | Custom Exhaust with quad Remus tips | Caractere Rear Spoiler | Maniac CF p-shifter extension | Sports pedals | 19" Breyton GTS AV w 245 45 Dunlop SportMaxx TT | S3 intercooler | K&N drop-in filter | Eibach prokit springs | ABT Front Grill | Whiteline rear 24mm Swaybars | Eyelids | ABT Stage 1 Piggyback | Cosworth 4pot 355mm slotted BBK | TRD aka Sprint booster with 21 settings |Comment

That does sound good Gary and I agree that a custom job will always reap benefits over an "off the shelf" product. Really like what you're doing to your motor and well done for pushing the envelope with the bits fitted.2011 Candy White Tiguan R Line 170 TDI DSG | Pan roof | Park assist & RVC | RNS 510 | MDI | LED's | 20" RS5 Wheels| Bi-xenons & AFS | Front & Rear footwell lights | Door warning & puddle lights | Mirror puddle lights | LED Tail lamps | Eibach Pro-Kit Springs

Not black as you already have a black moonroof. You could try dark grey or carbon fiber vinyl.Originally posted by Naresh View Post
