5. a link to the wiring diagram I should use
6. type/guage wire to use

For me, it's becoming obvious it will take a few weeks of study and much reading to get enough functional knowledge on my own to make the correct decisions.

In this case, you might be advised to simply purchase a wiring kit from StewMac. It would include the correct type of everything you need, such as this one:

7 and lastly, is the mounting hardware and bezels for humbuckers of a universal size or do I need to find something specific for the 'buckers I've got?

If bezel means pick up ring, then the fit should be pretty universal, with or without covers.
