I recently replaced the door latch on one of my '99s with a VW part 3D1837015AB, just under $30 on eBay. It was listed as a door latch for a MK5 VW Jetta, Golf, GTI.
Installed on Saturday, I thought it was all good. After everything was back together and closed up, I found that the lock didn't work - a plastic piece for the MK5 locking mechanism was blocking it.
Sunday, I went back in and made a slight modification and it works perfect now. While I was at it I made a video and posted on YouTube:
Here's a video to repair of the electronics in the latch:
