Boogety's link is for earlier Beetles. 2006+'s are quite different.

Try this one.

If you look closely at the lever on the headlight basket under the hood, you should see a small rectangular cross hatched plastic tab. That tab is like a lock. If you press it in slightly with a small screw driver you should be able to move the lever and pull the headlight out of the fender.
