The latch itself is held on with bolts, easy enough to change. The release cable has to be fed down the inside of the rocker panel and into the trunk.

How can I adjust the trunk latch on my 2000 new beetle It doesn't like to latch and the colder the weather the worse it gets?

I talked to a mechanic about that just today. He said there are no adjustments, they just wear out over time. The only solution is to replace the latch. About $60 to $70 for the part, and it's easy to do if you're mechanically inclined. It might cost $150 or more to have a shop do it. Until then, there's a trick -- if you hold the trunk closed, insert the key and turn it opposite from the direction to lock it, the trunk will latch. That's the only thing you can do until you replace the part. Sorry.
