Everything goes on the the battery side except the starter cable, and thatgoes on the other side.

whatever you connect to the starterside will get + once you turn the key into start position.
So if you want your powertop to only work when you start your car, then yes. Go ahead and connect it to starter side :-]
sorry. couldn't help it.

See it like that:
The left side where biug cable from battery is coneected: whatever you connect there has constant 12V+. it's the _exact_ same as connecting to battery+ port directly.
Then you have the starter side of the relay, which goes to the starter. This get's 12V+ from the battery side once the "s" port of the relay get's powered from the ignition key in 'start' position

doies that make sense?
