took some pictures so can you check I've done this right? I tried connecting up the instrument cluster and the clock ticks away when the keys are removed but when I turn the key part way no dash lights come on, and when I try turning it all the way to start the engine there's a spark and a bit of smoke off the negative battery terminal (bit greasy), and a sort of short clicking sound from either the battery or possibly the starter motor?

head strap


battery positive terminal


battery negative terminal (note the red circle is the strap to chassis which was tapped on temporarily and the blue circle is the chassis to gearbox strap)
