    Have you priced them with a main dealer? Give Newmarket Motors a call and see what price they are.

    They should be able to get them the next day if you order them early in the day. They may even have them in stock.

    Keys might look the same, but there are loads of combinations, so chance of seeing two sets with same actual key are very slim.

    Not your ornery onager

    The vw OEM spindle lock nuts are the ones to go for it grips on all of the nut not just parts of it like the way some of them are designed. Well so the guy in the tyre center told me last year :p when I was getting new rubber. He had a guy in with a volvo s60 at the same time and about 3 lads were trying for about 30 mins to get one of the wheels off as the lock nut had bonded to the hub. They couldnt force it or use the compressor for fear of rounding his particular type of lock nut, cue lots of swearing. :D They eventually got it off and the owner replaced it for the ordinary wheel nut.
