1) You can use crimped spade lugs (female).  Crimp them onto the wire ends and slide them on to each connection (Spade) or you can just solder the wires direct to the Spades.

2) If you don't need them you can either cut them short and tape the ends, or, using a fine screwdriver remove them from the Molex connector altogether.

I would personally tape the ends of the spare wires.  If you ever need 5v in your cab, you will kick yourself for cutting the wire too short to be usable.   :dizzy:

tape works.. of course a little bit of hot glue works also.

probably the most professional way would be to put a little bit of shrink tubing on the end.
