Humbucker/Single-Coil Switching

I am preparing to install new pickups on my Strat. I am using a Pearly Gates in the bridge position and Texas Specials in the other two positions. I have a 250 K pot with a push-pull switch that I want to use for switching the Paerly Gates between Humbucking and Single-coil operation. Does anybody have a schematic for this?

The Seymour Duncan and Stew Mac websites have shematics for Duncan pups.

I have a Lone Star Strat with a PG that I split so that I could have a single coil in the bridge. I use a push/pull and it sounds great. It makes the guitar much more versatile that the stock set up. BTW, I also replaced the Texas Specials with SD Vintage Rails. It is my favorite Strat now. The Texas Specials always sounded dark and lifeless to me.
