putting a diffrent alternator in tonight and got distracted and forgot to unplug the battery and arced it out now i have no dashlights or head lights nothing that is operated by the ignition switch i think i might have blown a fusable link but im unsure at this point all the fuses are good, but where are the fusable links in a 87 hatch?

I hate when i do that.

 

You can find the fuseables in a small box near the battery.

Ive done the same thing the first day I got my hatchback. I got in a hurry and got excited and put the battery in backwards.

is there any other places for fuses and links cause they are all intact by the battery box or can they still look bad and be good ?

anybody know?

They can look good and be bad. Do a continuity test on them, or just switch em around and see if your dash works again and something else stops.
