Sounds like you have blown the ignition feed fuse.

The main power fuses and relays are under the bonnet by the battery, the distribution fuses are below the steering column behind the cover with two retaining screws.

There are also Fusible Links in that box, I think they are under the top layer of relays, you may have nudged on of them as well.

Passenger COMPARTMENT, not passenger side.

The fuse box cover is to the right and below the steering wheel, has two slotted head screws to release.
