another car wont start thread (sorry)

well I recently had a full 10 pt cage put in, the guys took out my dash and reinstalled it for me. and now I have no power to my starter. power everywhere else, just no cranking power. they removed the passenger side air bag and the 3 relays on it too. I found one of them and plugged it back in, but cant find the other 2 plugs for the relays. I dont know what the relays are for, anyone have a idea as to what it might be. thanks

oh the car is a 96 Formula.

we'd have to see a picture to know exactly what you're talking about. Do you have a security light flasshing on the dash when you try to turn the key?
If so, try locking and unlocking the driver's door from the outside with the key. I've had simular situations happen to me in the past and this was the fix. Hopefully for you it's the resolution to your problem.

Then you definately lost power somewhere. Start checking wires under the dash to make sure they are pluged in. Wish I could help more.

Sounds like it's the responsibility of the shop that installed the cage. These are the four plugs that go in on the passanger side.

They shouldn't be too far from eachother. You may be taking the dash back out. For some reason, your ignition switch isn't getting power (I would guess anyway). I wish I could help more.
