Default Issues with the front cigarette lighter

Hey everyone, I wanted to ask about an issue I'm having with the front cigarette lighter (06 530xi touring). An earring was dropped in there awhile back, which shorted it out. I was looking/searching on what fuse to look at, and I was directed to the fuse in the trunk compartment (30 amp) #87 as the possible culprit.

There was no fuse there (pic) I tried adding one quickly to see, but no effect. So I'm unsure where to look next. The rear center console one works (rear access) but the lower front cigarette lighter still refuses to work. Not sure where to check now. Any thoughts/help would be appreciated!

Matt
