Are you suggesting that I split the cable that is currently connected to
the starter battery and then connect the relay at that point?  Will that
operate the same way?

Where did you locate the fuse?

Russel, a closer connection point is the +ve terminal of the starter
battery.
There should be a hole already cut in the side of the box under/behind
the
driver's seat and a similar whole in the main battery compartment. The
relay
will fit in either battery box. I added a fuse too.
