Electrical questions...

What type of switches do I need to buy for the Power and Reset buttons button for the front of my biscuit tin mini-ITX computer? Presumably I have to solder the wires to them.

I also presume i will need a crimping tool and some of the connectors that go on the ends of the wires to attach them to the pins on the mobo... available at any electrical outlet?

Something else that bothers me... making sure the mobo is earthed... how do I do this? I'd rather not fry it.
 
Toggle switch i think, wrap a wire round one screw that holds the mobo in place and wrap the other end on the psu frame or screw on the psu to earth it. If you can find an old atx case thats no use i'd rip off the switches too :D
