- The only anti-theft device we have for using a trunk mounted bike rack like the Thule Passage part # TH910XT is the Thule Passive Security Strap # TH533.

Another option is the Thule OutWay trunk rack part # TH45JV. All of the straps of this...

- Some vehicles do make it tough to simply wire into the brake light switch for the brake controller and your Golf may be one of those, but I do have a solution for you.
I called my contact at Tekonsha and they told me that you will want to find the wire that leads to the third brake light.

- According to our research, a 2011 Volkswagen Jetta with an automatic transmission can not be flat-towed. You will need to check your owner's manual or with your dealership to verify this.
You can use a tow dolly like part # RM-2050-1. The dolly has lights and electric brakes.
You will need a brake controller in the towing vehicle to operate the brakes on the dolly. I recommend the P2 brake controller, part # 90885. This is our most popular because it is easy to install and operate.

- SeaSucker does offer the Komodo part # 298-BK1910-BK which is a fit for your 2016 Volkswagen Jetta but the Falcon is only for truck bed.

- You don't need to pull any fuses when flat towing your 2014 Volkswagen Jetta so a fuse bypass isn't necessary, but I will say that if you will be using a braking system that pulls power from your vehicle battery you'll want to add the Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit # RM-156-25 to keep your battery from draining.
For a complete flat towing setup you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, vehicle tow bar wiring, a supplemental braking system, and possibly a high-low adapter....
