Should I wire it differently?

Should I wire it differently? So I have a Sony HU, a AEM A/F digital gauge, and a HUMOUNT with the red LED "Trans Am" light up option. So stick with me here, I'm not the smartest guy when it comes to wiring stuff up... So I have my stereo wired up perfectly with the aftermarket matching harness and all is well there, however I drew power from the power and ground cables from the stereo harness for my AEM gauge. Then from the AEM gauge, I drew power from there to my HUMOUNT light. Should I change things up? Where else could I draw current from? It seems perfect to me but figured I would ask anyways, doesn't hurt to be safe.

I don't see a problem with that. The only problem that I could think would exist would be if those other 2 accessories drew enough current to cause the radio fuse to blow.

There's a acc. empty fuse port in the fuse panel. If that makes any sense. GM left a couple extra slots just for this type of thing. You could just tap into one of those circuits. Just put an inline fuse and you're good to go.
That's where I'm getting power for my Boost/Vac-Fuel Pressure-AEM Wideband-Oil Temp. They all work great so far.....although I only put like 250 miles on the setup this summer.
