will this fit a 2012 VW Tiguan, and are there min/max cross-bar separation requirements (distance between the bars along the long-axis of the car)?

Sorry don't know about your VW. My cross bars are positioned 29" apart. I mounted mine on a 2007 Mercedes GL450. Perhaps you can take a closer look at one in a parking lot near you.

I don't know about VW. My crossbars are positioned 29" apart to accept the mounts. I have it mounted on a 2007 Mercedes GL450. Perhaps you can spot one in a nearby parking lot and compare the roof rack to your VW.

The minimum separation is 24" and the maximum is 32". There are 4" intervals between that. The mounting brackets should fit any crossbars. My crossbars on my 2010 Jeep Commander are wide and the brackets fit with plenty of room. It also fits on my 2012 Town & Country Van. It should fit your VW just fine.

The cross bars on my Impreza are 2.5 inches. The clamps are pretty long. I measure 4.5 inches between the posts that hold the clamps. They should fit with room to spare.

This is a single bar. Many cars need two different lengths of bar (my Tiguan, for instance).

No, It has no VW logo on it but it is a perfect custom fit to the Tiguan and makes a big difference. It is made of excellent quality materails. I have two, one for My wife's tiguan and one for My Golf R. I live in Texas so it does a good job reflecting that heat. Highly recomended

There is a walk through on what needs to be done at www.vwvortex.com in the sportwagen forum. Just search for travall and it should pop up. I believe it just requires trimming the legs slightly but it will fit with small modification.

It's better on Highlander 2012 with Yakima cross bars than the factory ones, but still slightly interferes with the hatch. Since we had the skybox already and the cost of shipping back was half the price of the item itself, we ended up drilling extra mounting holes in the Skybox instead - even that it's not recommended by Yakima and voids the warranty. So if you did not order any of those yet, it may make sense to keep looking for a different cargo box for Highlander 2012.

The only thing that could be an issue is the throttle end of the grip at the closest point to your start/stop fitting on the bars. As long as your bars are 7/8" they should fit. I put them on a 2012 suzuki v strom and had to cut out (trim) some of the flange end of the bar grip to fit over the collar that controls the throttle wire, but understand that is peculiar to Suzuki. Otherwise, they have five position setting and get quite hot at position three. Never had it hotter than that and don't forget to turn them off when you get off the bike, or connect the hot lead to your ignition circuit. I am glad I bought this set, very impressive.

I have a VW tiguan and it's too small, it would probably be a perfect fit for a smaller car like yours.

Check with Mann Filter website which was the source I went to to confirm fitment for my 2011 Tiguan. Be aware of fitment, as I made an earlier mistake purchasing one without checking.

If your wagon came with the front-to-back roof rails, these crossbars will fit. I would advise against purchasing them, as they have to be removed every time you're finished using them, then remounted for the next use. Otherwise, you will be driving around with noise that sounds like a small airplane is about to land on your roof, and unable to use the radio or talk to anyone in the vehicle. My last car was a Toyota Sienna minivan, which came equipped with aerodynamic, noiseless crossbars, so I know these square-sided crossbars that I recently bought for my Jetta wagon are a poor choice unless you don't mind mounting and re-mounting them for each use.

No, the crossbars are separate, although there are 3rd party crossbars, I elected to go with genuine Honda crossbars Genuine Honda 08L04-TK8-100 CrossbarGary

If you have the yakima crossbars installed it would fit just fine. I have used mine on a VW Jetta with the yakima crossbars installed and it worked perfectly.

dear customer, Tiguan's rear emblem badge can not be replaced, there is no existing hole. can not install. what kind of headunot of your Tiguan 2012? if it is rns315 or rns510 or rcd510, you can choose our universal RGB camera like: http://www.amazon.com/All-Lights-Parking-Camera-RNS315/dp/B00CO5AXQK/ref=sr_1_14?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1408584876&sr=1-14

I think Yakima really designed this particular rack for the factory cross bars, since many of their other racks work with their proprietary shape. So, if your car is rolling with those bad boys, you should be all set; they set up on my Subaru no problem!
