when looking for a wiring diagram, it matters way more what kind of 5-way switch you're using than what pickups. is it a strat 5-way, or the Ibanez special 5-way, or a schaller megaswitch, or something else? the wiring for each of those is completely different.
to figure out the wire color codes for your pickups, you can do several things: google for wire color codes for this manufacturer; if the pickups are used, see which wires the old owner soldered together as the series link and soldered to the bare ground; take a multimeter and measure the resistances across all the various colors, which will tell you which pairs of wires go to the same coils. you still may have some trial and error, but that will cut down the possibilities to only a couple and make it easy to figure out.
