Unhappy Newbie here with '89 DX Hatch questions

Hey all! .. I've been a Fiero owner for as long as i have been driving .. and still am! BUT, decided to get myself a new second car this week (89 DX hatch) and have a couple questions. I'm afraid this is a whole new playing field for me, coming from knowing everything Fiero to a totally different car is a bit unsettling. I purchased a used '89 DX for about 1800 bucks, not bad. Has a tiny bit of rust and has an abnormal minor tranny noise; shifts great, clutch is great, but makes a slight grinding noise throughout driving speeds, but stops when clutch is pressed. Now its not loud but, it almost seems like a rattle .. not sure. Before i take it in next week, does anyone recognise this sound by any chance? .. it could be a while before i take it in as i was in a bad car accident last week, ankles are f&^%'d, hense the recent purchased Civic...

Also, replaced all bulbs in rear end and yet one brake light is still not working. Fuse perhaps? If so, where are the fuse box's located in the Civic DX?
