On my driver's side Sunvisor one of the clips had fell off so when I went to pull the visor down the mirror that has two wires connected came out and is now dangling down and once this happen all my interior lights stopped working (the Sunvisor, mirror lights, door lights and dome lights). I'm not exactly sure how to fix this or what needs to be done because the visor wires are still connected.

More than likely the issue is when you pulled that down it shorted to ground and blew a fuse.

So, we need to start with checking this wiring diagram and see which fuses are related and check these fuses.

https://www.2carpros.com/articles/how-to-check-a-car-fuse

However, if this is not the case then there may be an inline connector that came loose, and it is causing these lamps to not work so that means we are going to have to open the headliner and check.

Clearly that is not the best so let's start with the fuses and go from there.

Let me know what you find. Thanks

Looks like the fuses are directly for the BCM. So, it should be on the left side of the dash junction block and number 1 and 2 fuses.

Take a look at the chart below.
