So since im new to this LED movement. when i wire this thing up do i need any relays or anything or just wire it to a switch and go?
That big bar still pulls a significant amount of electricity. You need a switch to a relay and a dedicated power and ground wire to the relay that's big enough to carry the load. I used 10 ga wire.
You can fish those wires through the inner fender and the cowl up behind your windshield seal and out the top. The ground goes directly to the battery and the power wire goes to the power side of the relay.
You can use a small power and ground wire to energize the relay. I just wired it in to a constant 12v on the fuse block so I could turn it on with the jeep off.
