these are saga guitar kits. The wiring is done for you and all you have to do is to connect the color coded plugs.

What he said. Also, many times, the best way to get wiring information is to contact the pickup manufacturer....they will be able to give you the best idea hw to wire them.

There is a gazzilion ways of wiring pickups. It all depends on what sort of tone you're after, whether you want coil splitting on one or both of your humbuckers (I'm assuming H-H configuration), that sort of thing. If you wish you can even do out of phase coils in a humbucker (Peter Green thing).
