Does this look right now? got the colour code done right, the grounds all wired up as far as i know, and the capacitor added, hope this is right, if it isnt please tell me anything wrong with it, thanks :)

You have the labeling wrong.
The neck pickup does not have north and south coils, because it is a single coil pickup.
Also, you have the bridge pickup labeled as 1st and 2nd norths and souths, but that doesn't make sense. There is no need for 1st and 2nd labels, and there are no + and - leads in there.

In order from top to bottom of the leads you have labeled, it should go:

Neck pickup -
Neck pickup +
Bridge pickup NC +
Bridge pickup NC -
Bridge pickup SC -
Bridge pickup SC +
Connection wires
Ground wires
 
cool ok, thanks for all your help, ordered all of the stuff today, and just going to wait and see now, still need to get a push/pull pot from place in england along with string set before id have everything for it when all of the shipment comes, looking at 130 pounds customs possibly if they ask for the VAT they charge here, greattt :/
