Pickup wiring

Hi all I have a problem with wiring a seymore duncan humbucker to a epiphone special 2. The original pickup has 2 wires and the new has 5. They both solder onto the 3 way switch so I'm confused as to which wire goes where.

Sorry if this is really vague I'm a noob.
 
Re: Pickup wiring

Typically for Duncan humbuckers:
The black wire is the lead that carries the hot signal. The green and bare wires go to ground. The red and white wires are either connected together and taped off or are used for additional wiring options.
