What did you tie into for the door trigger?

Try this, latch the door so the car thinks that the door is closed. Then test the door trigger wire when you turn the ignition off, if it pulses a ground then it would turn the relay off. The other thing it could be is you tied into a bad power wire for constant or tied into the wrong wire for turning the radio on. Just tossing out some suggestions. It could also be possible that you have the wrong type of relay.

are you sure you didn't mix up any 87s with 87a's? That might be it.
