Default Headlight Doors control module

Hi everyone, I need a headlight door module for my 91 Olds Toronado.
I was at the junkyard the other day looking for some other part for my Trailblazer and believe it or not I came across an 87 Toro. I wanted to get the headlight module but couldn't find it. On my 91 it'* in the front left fender but its not on this car and I don't think it'* been removed. The 87 and my 91 are different versions of the Toro so they must have put it someplace else. It might not work in my car but I'd like to find out.
If anyone knows the location of it I would appreciate it. Or what the connectors look like. Mine had 2 connectors, 1 with 4 pins and 1 with 5 pins.
Thanks

The 91 are electric and I think the 87 is vacuum.

Mitchell doesn't show a module for the door. It is electric and it'* powered through they under hood relay. It don't give a circuit description but I'm thinking it uses the BCM to trigger the relay instead of a separate module.

well that figures. It was worth a try.
my car also has auto headlights, that may have something to do with it.
anyway, thanks for looking Carfixer007.
