I have lost mine and being a cheap bastard I dont want to fork out $90 for a new set if I dont have to. Anyone happen to have one lying around that they dont need any more?

Yeah that is always an option but I would feel better having a set of locks, even if I only have rep wheels I would still prefer if they didnt roll away without the car

I doubt you will find a matching key for your wheels since VW uses a whole lot of slightly different ones (logical else any VW owner or former owner could rip off wheels from any other VW).
Remember when you tried your key with my locknuts up at Winton when I lost mine? (still haven't found it, either)

VW sell the keys for $30 last time I checked. You just need to go there for them to identify which one you need to suit your bolts.

VW dont sell em any more, they only sell full sets of the new type keys. Its that or buy a master key set for $250+
Will have to pop into the dealer and get them to take the old ones off and put a new set on, at least they should do the swap for free and only charge for the bolts.
