Not published by PRS: tuner hole size and bridge mounting spacing. Measure these before buying tuners or a bridge.
This bridge measures around 54mm, which does not cleanly match either the standard Fender modern 52.4mm spacing or PRS's other SE tremolo-family guitars at the same figure. Treat it as its own distinct spec rather than assuming either family's aftermarket parts are a safe match.
A genuine left-handed version of the same tremolo used on the right-handed SE Silver Sky, not a workaround. Matches this guitar's string spacing.
Gotoh manufactures a genuine left-handed version of the Wilkinson VS100, part number WT1LB, at the same 54mm string spread as the standard version and as this guitar's own spec, not a mirrored right-handed part.
Fits the standard Strat pickup route regardless of handedness, though expect to lightly file the pickguard openings, a common, easy step on this body. Despite being a modern noiseless design, this set does use staggered poles. Check that a left-handed stagger is available before buying to avoid an uneven string balance.
Standard Strat single-coil route, not affected by handedness for mounting. Multiple independent owner reports on PRS's own official forum confirm standard Strat pickups fit the SE body, but the pickguard's pickup openings commonly need slight enlarging with sandpaper. Despite being a modern noiseless stacked-coil design, this set is confirmed by real owner reports to use staggered pole pieces, not flat ones, so the same right-handed-stagger-on-a-left-handed-guitar imbalance risk applies here as it does on traditional staggered single-coils.

A right-handed stagger in a left-handed guitar can make some strings noticeably louder than others. You will need to solder it in.

A left-handed locking tuner option, but the exact bore and this guitar's spec have not both been confirmed to match. Measure before ordering.
This guitar's bridge measures close to but not exactly Fender's standard 52.4mm modern spacing, and left-handed tuner handedness/bore has not been independently confirmed against this part.
