I have a 2 year old USA vntage 70's strat and I want to install a new 5 position switch. Which wiring diagrams do I use from the fender web site?

The 3-way, and 5-way switch terminals are identical. It's the same number of connections
Just make sure you jump a wire from the lower left terminal to the top right terminal and that will be your volume pot lead. The two terminals at the lower right will each go to the tone pots.

Thanks Harley. Can I post more about this later when I'm actually installing the switch?

You're welcome Mike,

Of cour5se you can post, I just can't guarantee I'll be here. But not to worry, it's really very simple to do. It's standard Strat wiring. If you do get stumped...here is a site that should show the actual routing diagram:
