Did you lose yours? Might check with the dealership (have a master set) or the parts dept to order a new one specific to your VIN.

When I needed a wheel lock for the Jetta I had bought. Those plastic lug bolt covers hide the wheel lock, the dealer would not sell the key, something about selling keys defeating the purpose of the locks. People could buy the keys at the dealers and steal wheels all day long (yea right).

I did not want wheel locks on the car anyway, and the lug bolts are round on the outside and recessed into the wheel, and I could not fit a bolt extractor like I had done on other wheels. So the dealer had a "deal", for $40 they would replace the lug bolts with regular bolts. Since the lug bolts from the dealer where like $5 each anyway, I had them do that, took about 1/2 hour for them to fit me in.

The car I own was missing the lock and the jack kit.
I was able to buy an entire jack kit but I am still missing
the wheel lock.

I had the same issue, bought the car with the jack kit but no key, my local dealer sold me the key, was ~$30. There three or four different keys, so parts dude went to the car and found which ine was needed.

The dealer ended up giving me one after I raised a big fuss. I told them that I was going public and to the AG that they sold me an unservicable car because the wheels couldn't be removed without a master set. That violated state law. I removed the locks and replaced them with standard lugs. I told the salesman that if somebody really wanted my wheels....wouldn't they just buy a master set and make up the cost with the first set they stole? Seems that was exactly what had happened nearby. Bingo!
