what size tuner post for fenders?

alright... buying hipshots for my fender... real simple question here, but i couldn't seem to find the answer... spent 20 minutes looking at ebay, TB and the hipshot website; still can't find the answer. oh well. am I correct in thinking the hole is 11/16" wide, and the bushings put in make it 1/2" wide, so i should get the ultralites with the 1/2" key, right? they offer 1/2 and 3/8, and for a regular fender bass, i need the 1/2" sized tuners, right? that's all i need to know.
