Dean Edge 1 - Replacement Pickups

I have "Soapbar" pickups in my Dean Bass, they are called Dean Pickups on their website. What is aggravating, is that on Dean's own website, they don't have any options for 5-string basses, which is what I have. Ugh.

Anyway, does anyone have a 5-string Dean and if so, what would be a good replacement for these so called "Dean Pickups".

I am looking at:

Bartolini 5-String P-Bass Pickup 58CBP

and

Seymour Duncan:
4/5 string Passive Phase II Soapbar SSB-4/5
or
Passive Phase II NYC Soapbar

(yes, this is a Passive bass)

Thanks!!
 
and as a matter of fact I also have a Dean Edge1 5 string but... it doesn't have soap bars,rather it has just 2 single coils just like a jazz bass.I have never seen another 1 like i.If any 1 can tell me about my Edge1 please give me some info,because all these Dean dealers (so called any way) have no idea about it,all they can tell me is that it's a signature model..
