Dash illumination wire

[Assass1n 10+ year member]

My friend bought a cheap cd player for his 98 Hyundai Elantra o she can listen to something more than the 1 decent radio station. So he bought the wire harness to make it a clean and more professional radio install. Anyway the harness has a "illumination wire" wire but the radio does not. My question is what do you do with them if your radio doesn't have this connection?

What do you mean tape it off? Cut it and put tape around it? Or just put tape around it?
