I have read over the Pathfinder Companion Adventurer's Armory a couple of times and I think I need a fresh insight into the rules on Equipment Trick feats. The way I read it, you have to take Equipment Trick before you take some of the other feats listed under it...or is it, you take the feat and choose what Trick goes with it?

By taking the feat, you have access to all the tricks related to the selected item. However, you can only use the ones for which you meet the prerequisite.
For example, if I took Equipment Trick (Heavy Scabbard), and already had Improved Disarm, I could perform the "Capture Weapon" trick. If I later learned Blind-Fight, I could do "Find the Hidden" as well. I would be able to do as many or as a few of the tricks as I had the requisite feats or skills for. When I acquired those abilities does not matter, and I would not need to select any of the tricks when I took the Equipment Trick feat itself, or anything like that.
