It would just need to be a Momentary On-Off, being normally open when not pressed.

So On-Mom, Off-Mom? There close to 10,000 different switches on the site. I just want make sure I grab the correct one.

Probably off-mom. Where are you buying from?

 

last time I was looking at switches it was specified as off-mom(on) etc.

It depends on the type but a push or toggle type if you getting it from digikey this should help, you should use Off-Mom.

Off-Mom         = Continuous OFF momentary ON SPST
Off-Mom-Mom     = Continuous OFF two momentary ONs SPDT
On-Mom          = Continuous ON momentary SPST
Mom-On-Off      = Momentary ON continuous ON and continupus OFF SPDT
Off-On:         = Toggle ON/OFF SPST
On-Off: Toggle  = ON/OFF SPST
On-Off, Off-On: = Toggle ON/OFF DPST inverted poles
On-On-On-Off    = Three continuous ON positions, one continuous OFF position SPTT

Close enough, Mouser. That's what I was looking for thanks. I assume reset would be Off-Mon too?

One more question. Mom-Off is not bring back any real results, Specially with LED's. Would Mom-on | Mom-off allow me to wire it proper way. I know most PC switches have six pins but only four are used.

Here is a good diagram if it has multiple connections allowing for normally close or normally open operation, for reset and power switches you will want them to be wire normally open.
