You will need a press.

Your best bet is to remove the hub and take it to a garage.
This is on an Audi but vw's are similar.

u need to make sure that the new bearing is in correct position otherwise you will be changing it again in few hundred miles (like I did ) u will also need a ball joint splitter u cn pick one up from halfords for few quid

You will probably also need a hub puller to remove the driveshaft.
