Can I tap into OEM Bose amp power line safely?

I have a Kenwood KAC-5201. This amp is supposed to push a little over 100w when bridged from 2ch to 1ch (I think). Would I be able to tap into the power line running into the OEM Bose amp in my 2nd Gen CL. The amp is small and IMO, not that powerfull but I don't want to hurt anything. Would this be safe to do or should I run a separate power line from the battery to be safe? I need some honest opinions here. I don't mind running the extra power cable but I'd rather not have to if I can get away with it. I'm planning on installing it this weekend and I want to know before I get started so I have everything I need. Thanks in advance good people!

Not safe. Will blow fuse. Run new wire with fuse at battery. Get an amp kit, that'll have what you need.
