Just bolted up the RR light bar with 3 4" Hella Opti's. Any words of wisdom on wiring these up. My plan is to run them on a Relay and single switch.

35w version right? You should have no issues running all 3 to the output lead of the relay, a little tip tho, instead of running a power through your firewall, switch the ground of the relay that way there is no possibility of fire inside your cabin.

Thanks! You think it will be fine to combine "all" the light grounds to one grounding point? (splice them together)

As long as you have a good grounding point can't see why not. That is what I have done on mine.
