    Thanks! I did have to tweak the cavity a bit to get the Jack in. To get a good fit for the pickups I opted to drill the screw holes so that the springs could sit inside them. This worked out great. The springs stick inside the holes so they stay put when I flip the pickup over to install it. I saw in another thread that someone had depth problems due to the wires running under the pickups. I had already shielded the cavities so rather than carve out a groove for the wires I notched the bottom of the plastic pickup casing so the wires could pass through. Everything fits great now. Time to solder. Thank you so much for the wiring advice. It was going to come down to a lot of messy trial and error without it. I've included a photo of the pickup with the holes drilled to fit the springs.
