You need to solder 6x6x8 tactile buttons:

And drill 4 holes to back of the case. Holes in bracket should match desired location for back case so you can use it as drill template (untested, I drill holes by CNC :-) ). Tactile buttons caps were used, just search A101 on Aliexpress maybe you can find them on eBay too.

Great! Do you have a link to those caps? "A101" on ali didn't show anything :|

I wonder if these caps and switches from Amazon would work: http://amzn.to/2oQqxmC

I know you said you used 6mm x 6mm x 8mm switches but the closest thing I could find on amazon are 6 x 6 x 9mm switches and caps. Also coming from amazon would be so much quicker than from China.

It should work fine, but not a big fan of this solution. These caps hase no counter part which "holds" in case. You might have issue with not sticking caps in future.

Ahhhh. Good point. The search for the perfect buttons continues... I wonder if it would work if I tried using glue to keep the button on the switches?

Hello guys! It's possible to use silicone dip switch (8*8*5mm) like these with this bracket? http://s.aliexpress.com/VrYzI3iQ?fromSns=Copy
Maybe with 3d printed caps? What do you think?

Yes! :D Only with the ones coming with the new order (preorder #5) I modified the design to take those soft buttons (only 2x of them though).. but still kept everything else :)
