Hi.
I would like to know if there are power buttons I can order to replace the stock button that came with my Lian Li PC-A70b case.
I bought the $200 case (after shipping) this week and love it. I love its sheen under my desklamp. And with the EX-33b sandwiched between 2 C-01b DVD bezels, the front looks gorgeous and understated at the same time, which made the half hour it took to line up everything perfectly utterly worth it. I actually considered buying the PC-A7010, but I chose this older model instead because I love how beautifully the recessed fan grills on the front of the PC-A70b complements the EX-33b.
Plus, with 9 fans inside the cavernous case running components cool and quiet, the case is a winner in both form and function.
So, as you might imagine, I have neither the desire nor the intent to rma this case. Yet, I can't help but consider returning it nonetheless because the case has one flaw so idiotic, that despite all its beauty and functionality, it leaves me incredulous: the power button and the reset button stick. In other words, when I press down on the power button, the embedded button grates against the side of its recessed wall and often declines to pop back out. In fact, every time I press one of these two buttons, it makes a screeching sound of metal grating against metal. So far, it hasn't reset the bootup process by getting stuck, but I am concerned.

I wish I had a camera on me, but I no longer have a functioning one. At any rate, the front panel can be easily removed. And doing so allows the button array to be screwed off and replaced, which is what I prefer to do.
Can someone help me find a better button option that would not disrupt the aesthetics of the case?
Thank you.
