Have you thought about doing it with a push/pull volume pot instead, to avoid any butchering of the guitar? The wiring diagram for this is on the SD website.

According to the SD wiring diagram from the website the Red & White wires which are joined need to be shorted to ground via a switch, "toggle or push/ pull" in order to operate in single coil mode. I have a Tele Plus control plate which has a mini toggle between the pots that I will be using to split the GFS Lil Puncher XLs I plan on using on my build.

Hope that helps
