On my VW Tiguan, BJ 03/2011, original antenna was installed. They worked fine, only put it I did not like. Some things are hard to explain, I have always somehow disturbed. And once I have had a conversation with my colleague, and he recommended me this antenna. I bought, and can unengeschränkt recommend. + Fits perfectly on Tiguan instead of original antenna + No discernible degradation of reception. I could see the Berlin station for a while away from Berliner Ring away received (on A2 and A9) easily (as with the original antenna) + The antenna is fixed and inflexible. Has not bothered me to this day, but need to know. So clear recommendation from me.
