Relay With Custom Trigger Voltage

Hi,

I am trying to simulate a very simple circuit that includes a relay.

I understand the standard relay components in CL 'trigger' at 3v / 2v - and I can simulate the circuit working with those values.

However, I cannot fathom how to similuate an actual relay (where I know the trigger voltages/hysterises).

I read a few comments around saying to use a 'Voltage triggered relay' - the problem with that is I can only find a SPST version - my relay is a SPDT (like the standard one). Is there anyway to similate a SPDT Relay with custom voltage/hysterises?

Please note, I am a complete novice at this - so if it's an obvious question - SORRY!!

Many thanks
