no dome light, no stereo power!!

I am replacing my headliner so when i took the dome light bulb out the stereo would not even power on any more. the car runs and other lights work but the dome light does'nt and neither does my stereo. Whats going on please lend some advice.

Also when i was changing my back right speaker the speaker just stopped working. No speaker will work on the back right but it was working fine seconds before. what is wrong with that?! just one of those moring so it seems.

Thanks

If it is the fuse, it should be the one labeled ctsy. It's a 20 amp i believe. It's yellow. Hope this helps.
