Hi there,
I m trying to install a new light fixture to my existing wall :
My challenge is trying to install the new switch (installing beside other existing switch box) and connect to the source wire from the other existing switch box , but the problem is the existing switch box is metal , I cannot remove the metal box and I don’t see place where I can take the wire from that existing switching box.
Please advise how can I wire the new switch from the existing switch box who’s already metal box , attached image is the existing switch bo

You remove that box and install a double gang box. You have to figure out a way to remove it, or knock on down into the wall. You may be able to use deep boxes for more convenience.

You could install a double switch.

I've been doing double and triple rocker single gangs for stuff in my house:

(three) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0006B51IE/ref=psdc_6291359011_t1_B0087UNIVI


But the other day while looking for dual rocker for my game room lights I came across these slick looking touch button style switches - https://www.amazon.com/LIVOLO-Indic...ree+rocker+single+gang&qid=1581960406&sr=8-28 and now I wanna switch over heh (They have single, dual, and triple button models)

Nice looking switch, but it's not UL listed.

You do have room in the box for one more wire but i would just cut out the drywall for a 2 gang box, remove that box and replace it with one that has the screws inside.
