Are you sure your not looking at the plastic black caps covering the wheel nuts.
Use the metal wire hook tool from the kit on top of the sparr wheel to pull the caps off.
Only one locking wheel nut per wheel. The locking wheel nut key will be in the boot on the kit on top of the spare wheel.
Mk6 GTI  &  Mk1 GTI

Ditto.

If original VW then only one locking nut per wheel.
Mk6 GTI Carbon Grey, 2010 Bluetooth and voice fitted, a few VCDS mods still a comfortable family car. Red Scirocco 2011 twin charger stage 1 - enjoyable drive now gone.  White 2016 Polo GTI (roller skate on steroids) replaced with an Indium Grey 2019 7.5 GTI PP.
