I believe most everyone will recommend the Callaham parts, but there are many others to choose from as well.

I found this PDF for the guitar on Squier's website:

There's a parts list in there but I'm not sure how helpful that would be. Bottom line, you really just need to find out if the saddles are the wide ones or the newer skinnier ones, and make sure that your current screws fit into the new saddles holes. Given that Squier is being pretty true to the originals on the CVs (threaded saddles on 62 custom, for example), I think they probably will use the old school vintage kind.

Do you want modern or vintage ? Look for vintage spacing 2 1/16 or 10mm

These are steel vintage spaced and excellent saddles i have some
