Installing Autometer Guages

I have a question about installing some new guages. I got a water temp & air/fuel ratio guage for the a-pillar. I already have an Autometer tachometer wired up with the 12v and illumination wires connected into the fuse box. My question is can I combine the 2 new 12v wires into the existing 12v connection from the tach and the 2 new illumination wires into the existing connection or will that be a problem? Just want to get some info so I don't wreck anything

Re: Installing Autometer Guages

Zrated, I have 4 gauges wired in line...should not be an issue that I know of. I also have all 4 gauge bulbs on the same dimmer circuit as well.
