Default Hoodlight problem...

I changed my hood light bulb with an aftermarket bulb which was a pain putting on, so I used needle nose pliers (mistake) I think I must have arced the connection, because the new bulb never went on, and my 2 rearview mirror lights and my glove box light are now not working either... (I used a circuit tester and there is no power going to the bulb on the hood) does anyone know which number the fuses should be in the fuse box. And amperage they should be...Or is there another fuse box beside the one next to the battery, or an inline fuse that may have to be replaced?
Thank you for your help people...

That fuse box is in the floorboard where a passenger's toes would be. Pull back the carpet from the top under the dash, you'll see it. I don't recall the number of the fuse, but check the cover that pulls off the box. It's also in the manual, I'll see if I can find it.

Should be fuse #2 in the passenger floorboard.
