Hey thanks to all who gave me advise on the T/S and 4 way switch swap. It was easy. Also restrung the Tele with 10's. needed to lower the pups a little from the standard height setup recommendations. I didn't ground to the cavities and I am getting a little hum if I'm not touching the strings. Is there a simple solution, maybe one wire hookup to stop the hum. The guitar is alive as compared to the stock pups the hum is not really interfering. Just wondering.

A little hum when not touching the strings is normal. No, there is no simple, one wire solution.

Put some Copper shielding tape in the pickup and control cavities. That should help you out.
