They should be labeled. Find the backup lighting circuit or similar.

By the sound of it, you'll need to go through all under the hood and in the passenger footwell.

edit: driver’s footwell. Too used to RHD lol.

It definitely sounds like you popped a main fuse. I would test each fuse on each side of the exposed portion of the fuse with a multimeter to see if you have source voltage on each side. This will tell you if voltage is flowing through the fuse of it the fuse is blown. A visual inspection is fine as well if you don't have a multimeter. It would just take a bit longer to pull each by hand, one by one.
