Livewire HMET capacitor & resistor question

Abyssous

I received my livewire metal bridge humbucker few months ago (august?) and i installed it on the 100k pots included. i used 46 (i think) capacitor on the tone pot. the pickup works quite ok, bit noisy (i like that part!). the package also includes a 200k resistor and a yellow capacitor(is it 5 nano?). where do i solder these 2 if i'm only having the bridge humbucker? there was a schedule included with normal active humbucker wiring(useless..), but as i saw on some photographs, with the livewire there are yellow papers included (wich i didn't get) that explain where to solder the cap and resistor.. please send the schedule to my email skilletstephen@hotmail.com or post it here, or just explain. help:dot:
 
Re: Livewire HMET capacitor & resistor question

thanks for the help, everybody. (sarcastic)
i figured the resistors were to match an active pickup with a passive pickup
and that the .1 cap (100nF) was for the tonepot.
i wired it up properly with reversed pot loops (does that matter??) and added some of the finest singlecoils on earth

bridge H Livewire HMET B
middle S Livewire SH1N (hot strat)
Nneck S Livewire SH1N (hot strat)

best set ever for metal (it eats batteries, awesome!)
