I think there was a difference between 2009 models and later? I have read that the mk5 golf stalk fits the 2009 model and so is cheaper than the one fitted to the newer models...

I think the 2010 model and later requires both stalks as they come as a single unit and a new controller. This link helped me. The scirocco and mk6 are similar. http://www.sciroccocentral.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=14802&hilit=cruise+control+retrofit

Retrofitting cruise will depend on what hardware is in your car.
What part number is your BCM?

BCM is body control module.

A scan via VCDS will show BCM number and can check from there..

Ive been meaning to do the same.

The stalk design changed mid 2010 best to remove the wheel and see if you have the two seperate units or the later complete single unit for both stalks.

You can tell which stalk is the earlier or later one by the way main beam operates. If the stalk stays forward when you push it for main beam, it's pre 2010. If it springs back, it's the later one.
