Hey Angel,
I can tell you how to replace the fuse but once you have that you'll be music-less until you have the radio code, and that means more research or a trip to your dealership.
I know how you feel, though the fuse box is most likely down by the pedals near the hood release... you are going to have to back the drivers seat back and crawl in because that is the only way you are going to know what the hell is there. (This isn't a good thing to do on a rainy or cold day) There is going to be a panel with a little knob, once you have that off look on that panel, there will be a fuse guide to show you which fuse is the radio fuse. If you are unsure, just have the friend who lost your manual do it for you.
I hope this helps a little.

PS: I had 87 Honda Accord with the fuse box hidden by a coin holder near the stearing column. It makes me wonder who's the genius who decided putting something fairly critical down that low and that hard to get to. Thanks alot Honda another great idea in saving two feet of wiring and giving the fuse changer a crick in their necks. Good job!
