Front trunk hard to latch

EDIT: found this thread with detailed instructions by member 911monty - will try that first (Note that a google search of the site [site:www.986forums.com boxster how to adjust front truck] works much better than the site's built-in search)

Did a quick search of the site but didn't find what I am looking for - if I missed a relevant post feel free to redirect.

On my '98 base the front trunk is very hard to latch. I really have to put some "oomph" with my palms onto the lid to get the latch to catch. No mechanical interference or accident damage.

I imagine the "catch" mechanism may need to be raised slightly but before I go tearing into it, has anyone else had this problem and has any learnings they care to share?

TIA
