Tiguan Accessories - Non Performance

Genuine VW Rear Screen For Tig

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.

Might be good for bike rack?

or maybe this - which is OEM?:

For anyone interested have posted photos of installed bar here

It looks as if it's similar to mine so I've put a couple of pics here that may be clearer for people. Mine was fitted by the dealer in NZ and is NZ made.

You'll see in the last pic that all you can see when it's "off" is a small piece of the "down tube" sticking below the bumper. It's a VERY clean installation but isn't any use for "add ons" that require a horizontal tube fitting. I guess you could get a right angle tube adaptor made up if you wanted that functionality.

Cheers

The OZ bar is made by Best Bars in NZ

Yep, must be the same one then cos that's who made mine, I've had it for over a year now though so there may have been some changes.

Hey Sharkie, nice find. Just curious how you found out the shipping costs on the mud flaps? Actual cost of mud flaps is only US$50, so that means shipping is of the order of US$60?

Add to cart and then provide Australia as the country and postcode (4034 for me, but 4000 is the same). It calculates the shipping and gives a total.

Shipping from the USA is always bl**dy expensive ....

Don't temp me .... it is on my list of things to do still .... but I class it as "cosmetic"
