Hi, welcome to the forum.
They are M12 x 1.5 x 75 but the shape of them is different from an ordinary bolts.
Correct part numbers WHT002108 and WHT002101

Cheers. They seem hard to come by. Any ideas where I could locate? Saw one on Ebay but was taking an age to deliver.

Have you tried your local VW parts desk? Perhaps will be half the ebay price too.

Next day delivery from your local VW parts counter, you might even be lucky and find they'll give you a discount off the list price as they usually do for sales.

I've just bought them, I think it was about £8 for both bolts, £7 for some copper grease, and some of my garden pipe to stick over the ends. :D

Hello!
Just wanted to say that one of my spare wheel carrier bolts was seized and I had to cut it. I had to buy WHT002101 as replacement which I found to be about £10 online.
I called the local VW parts desk and they had it in stock. Went and bought it from VW for £4.32.
