Currently the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7284 is going to be our only confirmed to fit option for your 2012 VW Jetta SportWagen TDI. The Curt # C11474 replaced the 11072 and is not compatible since you have a TDI engine.

If you plan to do any trailer towing you will need the 4-Way # C59236.

Thanks Bud for the trailer hitch information for my 2012 VW Jetta Sportwagen TDI. When I clicked the Curt # C63RV as outlined the message, it indicated that it'd not fit my model.

I did not get clarification on part # C63RV. Website indicated that it'd not fit for my 2012 VW Jetta Sportswagen TDI. Can you provide me with correct part number? Also, do you have any trailer connector with T-connections without having to spice the connections for my car? Thanks, Jonathan

@Jonathan Sorry about that. I was confused by your statement. There are not any custom fit tail light wirings I can find for your Jetta. You will have to splice into you factory tail light wiring.
