External power button for acer aspire one

[Doltz]

Hey everyone!
I'm new to the forum, have been lurking for a while.
I'm going to be building a small bartop, probably modelled after the nanocade from Rasmus Sørensen.
I have an acer aspire one zg5 that I have torn apart, but I realized that I have no way to turn it on.
I'm wondering how I can turn it on using a switch or possibly one of the spare ultimarc goldleaf button I have.
The only other thing I could see found would be a door or drawer that I could use to access the bottom half of the computer.

Thanks!

Alex

Just take the wires from the on\off switch on the laptop case and run them to a button (same as you would wire any other button - one wire to the ground connection and one to the NO connection ) then when the button is pressed it should turn on the system just like using the original push button did.

Problem is, the power button on the AAO is a daughter board mounted microswitch.
The original power button just pressed on it.
I'm wondering if It just needs to be a drawer.

Figure out which contacts close on the microswitch and scab a couple of super thin wires on those solder pads with a fine solder iron.
