Hi Zandit, somehow I missed this thread and have only just read it now.
Looks like you are well on your way after some very good advice from DB, Fred and others. The tuners that are on their way will end up sitting like these that replaced similar crappy generic low end tuners on my youngest Son's Korean built Magnum Strat. As you can see I haven't bothered filling the holes and that job was done probably 16 or 17 years ago. As they are on the back, no big deal and very low chance they will be seen or spotted by anybody, and if so, who cares.
1st shot is your headstock followed by the Magnum's....
Hmmm, that last shot revealed a broken locator screw that I had forgotten about but all good as the locking screw on the front is tight enough to hold everything in place.
Only parts left to order if you haven't already done so should be a new 5 way Strat style switch plus a new Nut. Wouldn't recommend a locking nut as they are really only required with a locking tremolo such as a Floyd Rose and otherwise could be a pain when tuning up or changing strings. Everything else you need is in the box of goodies posted yesterday.
If the PUP conversion from 2 wire to 4 wire looks too hard or proves disastrous this is the PUP that went into the Strat and wired with a dimarzio mini dpdt switch that is on-on-on, just like the couple of cheapies that are on their way to you. Current PBG price is $36.95 and they sound great..... http://www.pitbullguitars.com/shop/p...eramic-bridge/
