nothing works!

This may sound really stupid but i was installing angel eyes and my friend had a plier on the wire when i turned the lights on and there was a huge spark. Now all my wedge bulbs dont turn on my dashboard light that lights up the speedometer wont turn on, none of teh sidemarker lights, or license plate lights work....what do you think the problem is? Fuse? LIghtbulbs are fried? both?

look for a fuse, check the big one next to the positive terminal on the battery. after fuses check relays.

err.. if u made a suggestion of the fuse, wouldn't u go about and check that out yourself first? it's not that hard to grab a testlight and take it out and look at it.
