I'm planning to install either a RIGID light bar or driving pods and also replacing my bulbs on my reflectors with Hikari LED bulbs. Now, I'm not that experienced in electrical so how do I wire them properly to prevent tripping the BCM and have a bigger problem?

As far as the headlights go, the BCM won't see the voltage difference, so you'll be fine there.

For the light bar, you'd be better off having them switched with a relay to keep the load off of the factory circuit. Wire in a separate switch so you can chose when to illuminate.
