Wires through floor

I tore all my rat urine smelling carpet out of my truck today and found these 2 wires coming through the floor. Looks like double insulated solid strand wire, they were under the carpet and cut. They were coming from under the dash. Where do they go?

Re: Wires through floor

Looks like could be coax for a dual CB antenna setup. Probably got snipped and hid after the CB radio died or was stolen.

Breaker Breaker one-nine, that's a big 10-4.. id have to agree with the Parrot, looks like an old CB radio cable set up, nothing to do with the operation of the truck,
