Fuses are under the dash on the driver's side, mounted on the firewall.

Check the earths/grounds too.

If the earth/ground for those two lights is OK then start tracing the power wire back to the fuse and see where it's cut/broken.

It's cut or broken in-between the fire wall and where the plug is under the glove box I'm going to route another wire to the plug in the engine bay

I have never seen a broken wire in a Sierra loom, not saying it isn't possible but certainly very rare.
If you have a left rear but no front, the problem could be the joiner plug behind glovebox or even the indicator switch itself as there are two sets of contacts for both front and rear.
