About £26 + VAT for one bolt and lock key matched.

The bolt key is not listed under Scirocco but Golf Mk6 as WHT 001 814B 524 plus your chassis's code at build. I hope they looked it up that way. If they only looked at Scirocco then yes it would show no single "key only" spares.

You can get on the www but the "524" at the end is Scirocco wheels. USA has stock at several places for $30 - $40.

Another alternative is to buy the set of 4 spare bolts and matching key as a repair item as 1K0 698 137A.
