Put the fuse as close as possible to were you are taking the power from. That way, the whole circuit is protected.
 
If you put it anywhere else, say after the relay and get a short between the power sorce and relay, the fuse won`t blow and you may end up with a fire.

yeah thanks mark, I just asked before even thinking it through.  When I sat down and had a 2 minute think about what the relay has to do it was just common sense how to hook it up :( .... It was like one of those moment where the instructions for something are right under your nose and you're sitting there asking someone for the answer

PS. should I put the fuse between power and the relay, or the relay and the fuel pump? or doesn't it matter

hi, you can use any of those square black bosch relays.
they have a connection diagram on the  actual relay itself..
or the guy at the auto shop should help you.
 
run some decent size wire as well..
 
and a fuse.
