doublecheck your fuses... very carefully. Every power lead in the car is fused, highly unlikely you would damage anything besides just blowing a fuse.
which wires did you cut exactly ?

i did the same thing a while back when i installed my elec cutout .. i forgot to re-dissconnect the battery.. and i blew the fuse on my stereo,dash/interior lights and some of my Cluster... The fuse is in the upper right corner, on the fuse panel located on the driver side of the dash .... check it out ..
You cant just look at the end of the fuse, you have to pull every single one out, and look at the leads if there dissconnected from eachother to determine the fuse is blown.. just tryen to help. good luck buddy
