ive connected it back up to the bolt it was meant to be on, still no startup... i checked the engine bay fuses and earthed my wires through the struts like you said aza.
now when i try to start it up, the moment the climate controll display screen turns on a small buzzing sound comes from the centre of the dash... never did that before :s

You are best off pulling the leads off the battery untill it's sorted out just to be safe.
Can you post up some pice of all the wires you have added and also moved to give us more of an idea.

Check for any grounding issues. Maybe try grounding it to another location (bare metal).
Also can try disconnecting everything and re-attaching/soldering to see if you've missed anything.

That's great news
I did not think there would be much wrong with it as there is not a lot that could go wrong.

Great
Might wait for the next diy day to do this one, engine bay would benefit from a little more room
