ive heard of people using phone cord to wire their power and reset buttons in the car. it already comes with 2 pairs, perfect for the switches.

you may want to be sure that you are not running the wires in question near power wires. the power wire will overwelm the weak signals from the motherboard switches.

or using a relay would also work.
