3 wire trim replacement

I have a trim motor question. It's probably been answered 30 plus times but I've spent too long looking and need a fix asap. I have a 1997 mercury force 120. My trim motor quit yesterday, I'm selling the boat and the guy is coming this weekend to get it. I need to get the new motor on for him quickly. The original motor is a 3 wire, I could only find a 2 wire replacement. It did not come with any instructions at all. My trim has 2 silonoids, one up , one down. They work as they should. Do I need a new relay system? as sold for 32 bucks or will it run ok off the 2 silonoids? I don't want to burn anything up. I found a video on how to build a 3 wire to 2 wire relay bit it's honestly quite confusing.

Thanks for the help and sorry for a most likely often asked question.
