Relay Help for K40 Radar System

I'll be installing my K40 radar / laser jammer tomorrow and should probably use a relay since this will be tapped into the BCM for power, I know I should use a low current relay preferably 100ma or less, but does it matter what type of relay? Can someone show me a link of one that will work for this application?

computers dont like relays, a lot of stray voltage is created.

the company told me I should use a low current relay, otherwise it may through codes or the voltage may drop too low due to the extra draw.
