There's also barely room for the 3-way switch as it is, but probably plenty of room for a push-pull pot.

But then, a simple toggle-switch and volume pot approach is exactly what I'm intending for at least one of my scratch projects (ala Joe Duplantier), so maybe I should just rip the band-aid off and not worry about coil-switching at all.

DPDT on/on/on Miniswitch perhaps? I have used these to good effect where space is tight. And also where I can't be @rsed fiddling a slot for a standard 3 or 5 way switch. Which is most of the time.
Edit: Just ignore me, I typed up before I'd read the dilemma post on the previous page. That said, if you fit the P/P pot, the Miniswitch option will still work.
Have a bash at the ENtwistles I have some of their X3's in the Original FrankenWashie guitar and they are quite nice. Not sure if the are wildly different from the Dark Stars but they are great sounding nonetheless.

Hand crafting guitars, because Death Rays are expensive.
Thanks Frankie. Yep, I think the only decision now is whether to add the P/P pot or not.

I'd look at getting and fitting a VLX53 5-way switch. It's the switch Ibanez use on their HH guitars which makes getting various pickup combinations with splits very easy.

34mm deep though, so check you have the depth.
This is the standard Ibanez HH configuration selection. A bit different from some, one could say rock biased with no individual neck or bridge single coil selection.
If you also managed to find an Ibanez 5-way switch cover from an S-series, you could open the slot up and have the switch mounted on the top of the body which will give you plenty of depth. Try eBay. Here's an example of what you'd be looking for: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/203462347002
