The best trailer wiring harness option for your 2009 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen is the Tow Ready Heavy-Duty Modulite Harness Kit, # 119190KIT. This is a splice-in harness and I have attached an installation video of this harness on a 2012 Volkswagen Jetta to give you an idea of what is involved with the installation.
I'm sorry, but there are no plug-in style trailer wiring harnesses available for the Jetta SportWagen. We carry all of the major trailer wiring harness manufacturers and none of them have any options. I also did some further research to see if I could find an option, but I could not come up with anything. If there is not a high enough of a demand for a trailer wiring harness for a particular vehicle, then the wiring harness manufacturers will not bother making one.
If you are not comfortable cutting and splicing, then I recommend taking the Tow Ready harness that I recommended to a dealer or a reputable auto shop to have the installation done by a professional.
