For your 2011 VW Tiguan there is not currently a T-connector harness available. You can use the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit # 119250KIT which connects without splicing into your factory wiring.

This option will work well for your Tiguan to give you a 4-way trailer connector. They do require a power wire to be run to the battery, so I've attached an article to assist with routing that wire.
