For the dash lights make sure you have the ground in the x14 connector grounded, it normally plugs into the ECU I believe but thats probably gone.

I know it's been a while, and hopefully you have found the solution by now, but I did not see it posted and just went through this myself. The connector circled below is what provides power to the inside of the car. There is a connector on the battery/starter harness that this plugged into that provided 12V from the battery after the 80A main fuse. If you connect this wire to the fused side of the battery power the inside of the car will have power again!
