Expert Reply:

As long as the cross bars on the roof rack on your 2007 Beetle are no larger than 3 inches in width and are at least 15 inches apart, the Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket would work great for you.

The Yakima OffGrid # Y07138 fits bar spreads from 22-32 inches apart.

The Thule Canyon, # TH859XT fits cross bars with bar spreads ranging from 20-37 inches.

Any of these baskets would work great for you if the bar spreads match your existing roof rack, but I believe the Yakima basket would look more proportional on your vehicle, because it is a bit smaller.

I have provided links to install details and a product demonstration video.
