Post-accident lighting woes

I was recently in an accident to the left front corner of my '02 Civic. No full coverage, so going through the mechanicals myself. Anyways, the taillights and dashboard illumination lights stopped working. Headlights(even the smashed one) still work, brake and turns work. I cannot find where there is a taillight fuse or relay. Can someone tell me where these are, or if this might be a wire, although I don't see any wires that would've been affected( unless it's close to the headlight, washer pump or marker light wires). Thanks.

Thanx guys for the help,that was the right fuse. I did find the bundle of ground wires was damaged, so I spliced them and soldered them yesterday.
