1991 100q: Where is the Bose relay in this car?

All the relay does is to provide power to the amplifiers.  If you are
removing the Bose system I would imagine that you will not be using the
power wires, so you may simply ignore it.  If you really must find it, look
carefully at the wiring diagram.  I've found that Bentley does tend to
include sufficient information in the component information right before the
wiring diagram.  

I know people have used the car wiring to drive the new speakers, but they
really aren't intended for driving a speaker directly.  My recommendation to
you would be to run speaker wires to the door and rear deck.  There are
wiring channels under the trim pieces at the door sills.

I want to take advantage of the existing wiring in my 100q as I remove the
Bose. Bentley shows a a Bose relay under the instrument cluster that I cant
locate. Where is the Bose relay in a 1991 100q? 

What is the # on it or how do I identify it?

Thank you.
