Can anyone direct me to some black pickup covers that fit an 02 Affinity? The ones I have, the holes are off a bit. I guess I have legit covers that don't fit on a Sqiuer?

You probably need to measure the distance between the center of the low and high E pickup pole pieces and then order the correct size covers. Think it's maybe 52mm for affinitys?
Plenty of covers will fit 'import' style strats so it shouldn't be hard to find

Thanks Fret Cheese!!! This helps very much!
I think the best approach is to buy a bunch and hope they fit. Nothing's for certain when it comes to Squier. Guitars from the same year will have differing parts. You just never know.
Better yet ... just spray paint your existing pup covers.

The best approach is to always measure - pickup covers only come in 3 sizes. 48mm, 50mm, and 52mm. Fender USA/MIM pickups are always 52-52-52, but Squier can be 52-50-48, 52-52-50, 50-48-48, all kinds of combinations, and they even vary from week to week on the same production model in the factory.....

I've used the blank covers Like Ken mentioned and they look good. Yes you can use them without holes @MyToyBrain I have chrome blank covers on a couple of my guitars..

I think no hole covers look horrible personally.....plus they might not fit if your pickup pole height is too high......

I like that Japanese look !
Do they work on staggered pups?
Forward me a link? I'm gonna snag a few sets.

Yup, I'm with ya, amigo!I am still trying to figure out if I like them without holes!
First saw such, musta been in th '80's...musta been th Laces, iirc...
Certes, it is "A Look", an no fault, or mistakin, there...
As we're gittin into ~ 40 years later, my question still is: can it be incorporated into what I think looks good?
Jury's still out on this matter, (sometimes they's slower than Ents)

You're the bestest !! I just ordered 5 sets. Who knows if I'll have the need.
As for deciding if you'll like them or not ... try it on. For all of us with 30 something Strats, what's the difference if one or two have covered pups ???
Go for it.
