Oh, is that what that is? Haha
I tried to make coins fit but they kept falling out.

How did you take it out initially? I get the part of trimming it down I am just curious about how you got started.

The piece is just held in by a couple of molded in clips. Just grab hold of the change piece and give it a good tug. May take a time or two. Much like the center console surround-trim that is around the radio/climate control. The first time you'd swear you're going to break something. After that it becomes easier each time. If you prefer, you can remove the surround-trim and reach inside around the back of the change holder and push it out from the backside. Again, either way it's just held in with molded plastic clips.

Well now I wish I had paid more attention because I had that area opened up because I was installing a remote starter. I'll see if I can find something to put in its place then because I dont really like it. Maybe I'll make a GPS holder to put in there.

Later: Wow, that was actually pretty easy I just never tugged enough to pull it out. But now I'm really curious as to why a coin holder needs a wiring harness?

I'm thinking about getting my wire tester and seeing if they are actually hot.

The wiring harness is for the 4WD control on vehicles equipped with 4WD.

Dang, I was hoping it was for a built in vending machine.

Correct but also incorrect. I have a 4x4 but I have a manual 4x4 with 4x4 shifter on the floor. I have the coin holder as shown in the picture so this mod isn't just for 2WD only.
