Attaching the ground to the battery would actually be optimal if you can do it. If you disconnect the battery cables, disconnect the negative first, and make sure to not let it touch any metal part on the car; then remove the positive.
Somebody else will have to help you about the relay thing, I have no idea what you're talking about.

I usually find a spot on the chassis to ground wires to making sure to sand it down to bare metal if I have to.

Taking battery off = neg (-) first then pos (+)
Putting batter on = pos (+) first then neg (-)

The wiring harness can be connected to either side.
