Does everything work as it is supposed to work? Do you have navigation?
Does it look like any of the cables plug into each other?
The black one may be your OBD II diagnostic connector.
Otherwise , I have no idea what they could be for. These may be an issue for the dealer.

Leave it alone. If it is not broken, why experiment and possibly break it in the process. Just stuff them back up under the dash and forget about them. They may be for some options you do not have, or something from the prior owner that he took with him.

Good advice from Clutchless. If you're not going to a mechanic or dealership for awhile, I would re-post in another section of the forums or even on another forums like PriusChat and try to find out exactly what is it.

Those are definitely factory harnesses, but I agree with the others.......leave it be. If I get a chance,I'll have a look at my CT and see if I can find a similar harness.
