Default Advice on uncut radio/cd player loom

afternoon, my mk4 im stripping has uncut radio wires
the speaker wires and plug that plugs into the radio is all uncut, ive removed this easy enough, but my problem is the main power to the radio, the plug is uncut and i want to remove the wiring from the rest of the loom to sell but it goes off into the ignition switch and fuse box etc,
what is the best way to remove it all and make it still worthy to go in another car? i dont want to chop it but at this rate it will be with half the loom lol! any advice??

hmmm keep a foot with the plug, "not a real foot with toes" you get my drift
keep the earth with terminal end , not worth s1 money , still handy for 90 spec minters

all the plug in looms are extensions.

I.e
Mirrors
Heated screen
Windows
Radio loom
Central locking
Amp
etc etc..

Meaning it should all have plugs to be able to disconnect it without cutting.
