Default OEM camera power supply to supply one more camera

Hello everybody:

My RX 350 has side camera. This camera has four wires: Video+ , Video-, power + and ground. I would to add one more OEM camera that has the same four wires and install in to new monitor. My question is that it is okay to connect power supply+ from exist camera to another new camera? As I know this power supply is 6V from ECU, is it okay to supply 6V of one wire from ECU to TWO CAMERAS? Thanks for your help.

Safer option would be a 6v supply from 12v source. If you are a tinkerer it should be an easy search and build.
