12V Switched Source

Hi. Installing an air fuel gauge and need to tap into a 12V switched source. My IGN spade in the box is used for my MSD ignition and the ACCSY spade is being used for my aftermarket tach. Could I tap into the ACCSY line for my tach and use that to power my air fuel gauge? Or is there another good spot if these two fuse box spades are being used elsewhere?

Get some of these. Don't make this harder than it needs to be.

Thanks Joe. I was hoping that it would be an easy solution but it’s my nature to complicate everything!

FYI, I pick these up at the local Ace Hardware.....in the electrical parts drawers.
