The bridge sits fairly equally both sides of the line of holes, so I'd drill a hole just forward of that, either (A) to the pickup cavity (if you think you can hide the ground wire from view, or else (B) out to the control cavity. Of course if you go for the cavity option the hole could go either side of the holes (but avoiding where the fixing screws go).

Thanks Simon, ill probably go through to the pickup cavity as you have drawn, as drilling to the control cavity is quite a difficult operation (for me at least). i didn't think about the fixing screws so thanks for pointing that out.
The headstock is a weird one, as just by looking at it the strings will probably rest and rub on the fretboard on the high e and b strings at least. i'll probably just file and sand it down on an angle
