No power to anything on my dash

Well i recently installed a brand new black interior in my 96 gt and after swaping my dash,carpets everything,I finally finished up getting everything put back together late sunday night only to find out i have no power to my speedo cluster,horn,cd player or dash clock.I was hoping someone on here has some exprience with mustang electrical and let me know any possible solutions or where the specific harness may be located and so on any info will help.IF I can't figure out the problem i am going to start taking my dash apart tomorrow and possibly the dash pad later on in the week i was really hoping it was something simple because i have an itch right now to drive my car and this is the only thing holding me back from doing so.

Thanks in advance.

Check these first before you start ripping apart your dash .... again.

94-98 Cabin Compartment Fuses (see attached picture).

Ok, did you check these?

94-97 Engine Compartment Fuses (see attached picture).

Also, did you check to make sure there is 12V power even going to the fuses? I'd start there if all the fuses look ok.

No problem Pal. Glad to hear that it worked out. Now you can spend your time enjoying that new interior instead of troubleshooting it. Cheers.
