How to fit a pickup claw on a Jaguar pickup

My Jaguar is missing the bridge pickup claw from a pickup swap years ago.
Gonna get a replacement and was wondering whether or not it's a simple process fitting it, or is there anything else I need to do?

so long as you don't pinch and/or crimp the cable (a mistake i made many moons ago), you should be fine.

When soldering to the claw a little scratch with some sandpaper then some flux will help the solder take. It can be a pain in the ass with that shiny chrome.

Nice one.
Was gonna order some tusq saddles as well but my Mustang bridge gunked up blu tac seems to be holding up well enough I think.
