I have looked around and cant find much about wiring a light bar into high beams. So im going to post what i got, how im thinking of wiring it. Im not an electriction so any suggestion will be AWESOME.
I am going to mount my light bar underneath the center bar on the grill guard.
For wiring, Im going to use some of my 16 gauge wire and splice into the high beam wire, and run it to a water proof Hella relay. From the relay i was going to run a water proof inline fuse from from the battery to the power on the relay, then run the ground and power to the light bars wiring. I want my light bar to be switched on from the high beams. I have never used a relay so im hoping i got the general idea for it, is this roughly how it is wired?
1)High beam wire
2)Power from battery to relay
3)power and ground from relay to light bar
This is my shopping list:

Once i am done, i will do a write up on how i wired it for anyone wanting to do the same
