Wire help and dash removal help please

I am trying to take out my kenwood double den and I am selling the FJ soon. I did not install it and dont really know what I am doing LOL. I attached a pic of the wires am asking about. they are attached to the kenwood harness not the OEM harness and run down behind the lower switch panal. What are these for? were do they run/attach and Should I cut them or what?

Also my NAV and SAt boxes are mounted behind the passanger side dash so after taking the glove box out I see the dash needs to be removed to get these out now. I have the glove box ect out but now I am stuck? plus the NAV antenna is mounted on top of my dash so more reason to remove that side.

Thanks for the help in advance.

Re: Wire help and dash removal help please

The light green wires you are seeing are probably the reverse sensor wire and speed sensor wire. The reverse sensor wire probably goes to the left side of the dash. Try removing the fuse panel on the driver's side and see if you can see it. The speed sensor wire will be behind the glove box tapped into the ECU. I think it's a wire in like the second harness or so. You say your antenna is mounted on your dash, do you mean behind the speaker grille or behind the information pod? If you need help taking the dash apart, there are 2 screws under the silverdash trim pieces then they just pop out...move them slowly up. The plastic panel with the a/c controls will have 2 screws and pops out..it's easies to do it from the sides where the screw holes are. There will be 3 connectors you need to remove and then you'll have access to the radio. From there it's just taking out the 4 radio bolts and unhooking your harnesses. They are plug and play so it should be pretty simple. I don't see a picture so let me know if you need anymore help.
