Did you make note where each pickup's white wire goes?

All blacks go to ground.

It should be easy!

Yes I took pictures of everything before i started to remove anything. and printed out the wiring diagram for my guitar through the support page. Im wiring it exactly like it was because the diagram that came with the pups is nothing like my 5 way.

I converted my Texas Special Fat Strat into a SSS a while ago.I ended up wiring the bridge pickup to the middle tone pot and left the middle one wide open all the time.I liked the results too.It seem to give the guitar more bite in the 2 and 4 positions.I also had to gently adjust the G string pole piece as the stock pickups had a modern staggar.Good luck.
