As a car owner who frequently maintains my own vehicle, dealing with cup holder slats is quite simple. First, sit down and carefully examine the bottom of the cup holder. Those slats are usually removable plastic blades designed with hidden clips. Gently press the center or edge of the blade with two fingers and lift slightly upwards to loosen it; if it's stuck tightly, try sliding it sideways to remove. Avoid using excessive force during the process, as the plastic can crack—this part in Volkswagen models is particularly prone to damage. After removal, I clean it with warm water and a soft cloth to remove dust or beverage stains, which helps prevent odors and bacteria. Putting it back is even easier—just align it with the slot and press it in. By the way, regular maintenance of the cup holder is important. If debris gets stuck, address it immediately to avoid affecting daily usability. I usually perform a small cleaning every quarter to save myself the hassle and expense of visiting a repair shop.
