Unhappy Severe Duty Filtration System

I purchased the SDFS from my local dealer. The main reason why I chose the Mopar filter was because there would be no chance of warranty denial and it should be pretty much plug and play

The included instructions are vague at best. Mr. Google finds only a couple installs documented but are the older style SDFS setup and non 4th generation rigs. I have physically installed the filter. There is a mount under the rig for this. Supply fuel line is the top line running past the mount location. The instructions simply say to cut the supply fuel line...truck starts, no leaks yea. Now the wiring harness. Run harness behind the battery toward the original fuel filter. Mount the relay upright behind the battery. I'm feeling like this really should be pretty simple but as there was already a specific location for the filter I'm guessing there is a specific location for the relay to mount. If there is it isn't so obvious to me. Connect the yellow wire to the C130 connector.

Dealer says this is a really new part and supplied no help on which line is supply for fuel, or where the harness goes.

Can anyone supply the locations for the C130 connection and if there is indeed a specific location to mount the relay?

Mounting hardware, after bolting the filter on, I have one nut remaining with no explanation as to it's intended use.

This was an easy install. [now]! The connections are all very simple once you know where they are. The mounts for the filter unit were easy to find and the unit mounted very easily in my 2012 Ram. Hope the pictures helps someone out. :S
