Go to Seymour Duncan's website. They have about a million different schematics there and I'm quite sure one of them will fit what you want to do. I'm also quite sure that Lace has schematics for virtually everything they sell as well.

If I'm following what you want to do, wire the bridge pickups in parallel, and treat them like a single coil pickup. Is the kill switch killing both pickups? If so, wire it in series with the output jack. If it's just killing the neck pickup, wire it in series with the neck pickup where it connects to the pickup switch. Otherwise, just use the standard three or four way Tele wiring.

Make sure the kill switch connects between the signal and ground wire to the output jack so it shorts the signal to ground like your amp does when you remove the guitar cable. Otherwise if you just open the signal wire it will kill the guitar signal but you probably will have some or a lot of hum as the guitar cable and wiring in the guitar will act like one big antenna for noise.
