I was going from memory on F47 which protects the load side of the relay. Your are correct with how the connections would be made. No need to splice into the existing harness, the connectors would make it plug & play. The only soldering would be the lead of the branch from F33 to 86 of the new socket. Any good ground would connect to 85 of the relay socket.
When you turn the ignition to run the external relay is energized connecting 87 to 30 which would then provide power to the windows. You would be moving the "control" from the circuitry on the sjb to the ignition switch when in the run position.
If you decide to do this, mount the new relay socket where it is easy to get to but will not be kicked by the passenger.
Don't fuse the branch any higher than 3 amps (purple fuse) unless the relay coil reads less than 68 ohms. Less resistance allows a higher amount of current through the circuit
Volts / resistance = amps
12 / 68 = .176...
