Trunk mount is worse than roof - stick with hitch or roof. The goofiest racks I've seen were license plate mount.

Hitch mounted racks require the installation of a bolt-on or weld-on receiver hitch (although there are some ball mount, receiver is way better).

Check hitches for your model at http://www.etrailer.com or http://www.hitch-web.com/

These place carry most brands other than some specialty hitches.
I'd check different model years of the same generation VW model on those websites (sometimes works) or even better - call a bolt-on hitch maker directly (ie curt, drawtite, etc). If they don't make anything check the car forums for a mod or specialty hitch.

Stick with your roof rack if you can't find any real hitch based solution. Trunk racks are less ideal than hitch or roof.
