installing Foxrox wah mod in a new Teese Wizard

I ordered the Foxrox wah retrofit for my Teese Wizard and I'm having some issues.

There's a video on the FR wah page of the mod being installed into a Wizard, but mine is apparently a newer model, and I'm unclear as to where to place the mod.

The video describes a wire going from the pot to the switch, with the mod being placed in between those and power being drawn off the hot lug on the input jack.

My pedal has the three pot outs going to a plug on the board, and the outputs to the switch coming from another plug on the board.

I have yet to remove the board, but if i do, perhaps I can see if there's a direct trace from the middle output of the pot to one of the switch lugs, but I figured I'd ask here first.

So.. three questions:

1) Do you think this thing will work if i just throw it in between the middle lug on the pot and the connection to the board?

2) Any idea which lug on the switch is the input?

3) My wah has big, board-mounted barrel jacks - can i get power from one of those? If not, where is best to draw power from?

here's the Teese page with the install video - it's the second YouTube clip on the page

and here's a picture of what's going on inside my Wizard wah:

I thought the newer ones already had a buffered out, or is this not so for the Wizard model?

I agree. According to his site they all have that for the last few years.
