Need ID on relay near steering column

The car is a 91 Camaro RS, 305 TBI / automatic.
This relay is hidden behind the knee pad/hush panel on the driver's side. There is a relay very close to is the is for the foglights. This relay is exactly the same, but I do not know what it is for. Currently, there are no wires connected to it. It is a Bosch brand relay. Could it be left over from a previous alarm system the car once had? The picture below might help. Thanks!!

I know one of the relays is for the foglights, but there is another relay near it that looks exactly the same. That is the one I'm not sure of.

There is another relay, actually two that should be there. One is for the starter enable relay and the other is for the power door locks if you have them.

I have power door locks and they work. The starter must be working also because I've been driving the car.
