Please see my signature. Jonesy is a player and a member here and all around great guy to deal with. This is not a big box store and he can hook you up with some PIO caps and wiring harness if you need it.

If you want Fender branded packaging (not necessary, but not bad either IMO) you can get them at Angela. You can also get any guitar electronics parts from guitar parts resource. You may find differences between the CRL or Oak-Grigsby switches (sometimes in Fender packaging) and the generic switches, but as long as you stay away from the rectangular-bodied enclosed switches you'll be fine.

Most people prefer CTS pots, and I really like WD Music 3 way switches. I do not like Stew Mac switches.
I buy all my capacitors from Radioshack, and I wire everything with cloth covered wire which is available from Stew Mac.
