To fix a broken trunk latch on a 2002 Volkswagen Cabrio, start by inspecting the latch mechanism for any visible damage or misalignment. If the latch is stuck, use a lubricant to loosen it, and check the connecting cable for any breaks. If the latch is broken, you may need to replace it by removing the interior trim panel to access the latch assembly. Once replaced, test the latch to ensure it operates smoothly before reassembling the trim.
I have a 1999 cabrio and the trunk release is in the centre console. If you unlock the little box there is a trunk release button in there. Hope this helps you out.
Remove the back seat.
As far as I can see, because I crawled into the trunk to open the trunk so I could repair the mechanism that opens the trunk. No!
To fix a trunk latch that is stuck open, the teeth on the lock may have to be adjusted so the trunk will close. It is also possible that the cable for the trunk latch is broken. To fix the gas cap door latch may require a little bending and adjusting with a pair of pliers.
If the trunk on a Honda Civic will not close the locking mechanism may be jammed. Be sure to remove any obstructions on inside the trunk latch. If the latch is broken replace it.
Remove the bulb.

Sometimes trunks on cars pop up when the latch is broken. There may also be something stuck in the latch preventing it from catching the other end.
The key for the Volkswagen Cabrio from the years 2000 through 2004 are still 'MFG RESTRICTED' and are a 'DEALER RESTRICTED KEY'. Unfortunately you will have to go to the dealer for any additional keys. There is not a separate 'VALET' key. Some models have what is called a 'SERVICE KEY' which will operate the locks, but will not start the vehicle. The Cabrio is not one of these.

On a 99 there is a cover located on the left side of the trunk. Pull out the 3 ince plastic plug and turn the "T" handle valve CCW.
