Try this at your own risk, I don't have the hardware to test this myself.  You can try using this diagram to use your existing power switch.

I believe pins 2,3 and 5 are used for a multi-colored led indicator.  Yo may also get a warning on start-up that the power switch isn't detected unless pins 1 and 2 are shorted but I am unsure.

 

Another option is to buy an original power switch and try to fit it to your case.
