    I think you are the firs tone to ask about a short shifter, hence no response.

    GTI will be slightly different but kinda the same. The bigger question is if the Tiguan shares the same shifter assembly as the GTI. VW is real great at sharing parts, but there is no guarantee unless someone has either tried it or you can confirm the same part numbers. Best would be to contact one of the suppliers and ask them.

    Hey Cheese,

    I scouted this when I was doing my clutch... From mark one eyeball it look like the OEM from audi S3 would work but after all the issues with my clutch I didn't want to deal with it so I never went for it.

    Do it and let me know :-P
