No power when ignition is off

It was working fine yesterday, until i installed my gauge pod on my pillar then it wouldn't lock, tried locking it using the switch still didn't work, put the key in the ignition and it didn't even make the beeping sound to warn that the key is in. When i turned on the ignition everything worked fine. turned it back off, nothing worked. Checked all the fueses and wires i played with. Any suggestions?

Cigarette for the wideband, and the one at underneath that to the left for the boost gauge.

Bump! There is a wire behind the driver side pillar that i think could be the issue, is it possible that's it? I think so because the dumbass's that sold me the pillar wanted me to drill screws into the pillar, I thought that was going straight into where the clips are, but hey, i learn something everything. I think i hit the wire while trying to drill it but i didn't exactly cut it.

Lights don't work when the ignition is on, and there is no fuse where the light fuse is, but I can't put a fuse in because there is a piece of plastic sticking out in the middle from factory. Any suggestions? All the dude's are working

Whats up, man? I am a big fan of the A-pillar pod, putting it underneath the radio is really way out of my sight, and having the wideband i'd like to know exactly what's going on and at the same time have my eye's on the road. The problem was the Fuse that is above the ECU, surrounded by the yellow wall or whatever you want to call it. I replaced that fuse and everything worked fine after. Luckily i was able to finish cleaning the door/hood/trunk jam's and the engine bay. I am most likely changing locations of the gauges though in a little while though, just to try out your suggestion, but everyone has his own taste.
