Adding Spin-a-Split to a '90s Parker Fly?

I'm converting one of my '90s Parker Flys to point-to-point wiring instead of the flexible circuit board that was installed from the factory. The stock wiring uses a 4PDT C&K toggle switch to get three options: full neck humbucker, the inner coils of both pickups, and full bridge humbucker. Since the new wiring scheme will eliminate the master volume pot and free up a hole, is there a way to add a dual-ganged 100k linear pot to be able to blend in the other coils on the middle position? I'm not concerned with adding spin-a-split to the neck and bridge positions - they are bright guitars and the Dimarzios already sound very Strat-like, but the middle combination can be a little weak. On my Hagstrom Swede, I have separate spin-a-splits but I always end up keeping both at the same level.

Here is what the stock wiring looks like (green is ground for some reason):

If the guitar's that bright, why not put in a push-pull to link them is series? That would give you warmth and volume.

Can you describe, or show in a diagram, how to add that to the switching configuration in the diagram?
