Power Locks Relay

I have searched a bit and not really finding the answer I need so here we go..... I have recently purchased a 1985 Z28. The power locks were not working when I got her, so I have been working on that issue. I found that the PO had removed the lock relay for some reason. What relays specifically do I need to go to the local parts store and get. The local junkyards don't have any third gens, so a used oem relay is not gonna happen. I have read that I can simpally use two aftermarket relays, but am totally unsure as to which I need.

Can someone please tell me what relays I can go to the parts store and get that will substitute for the missing factory power locks relay??.....

Re: Power Locks Relay

I was able to track one down at AutoZone.... now I was able to trace my issue down to the door lock actuators.... relay clicks but actuators arent doing anything so it has to be them....
