Default RPM switch/Shift Light wiring

According to the instructions on each, I should wire them to the #10 wire from the PCM, but can I safely do so without causing operating issues on my dash tach and on these devices?

This may be a stupid question, but I'd rather ask than have problems later.

Thanks for your input.

Sorry if it's in the wrong forum.

absolutely, just find the pin out in the pcm and go a little bit farther back into the harness and splice into the tach wire there, that way your giving yourself a little room. One thing you might notice atleast i did is how slow my stock tach actually was, ever since i got my shift light installed ive rarely missed a shift

also try the link below for a few more details to help your install if you havent seen it already. Click install documents on the left hand side. Then scroll down to the transmission section at the very bottom and click the link " Matthew Harlan's Programmable Shift Light".
