You need to know a few things
1. Is it momentary i.e. when you let go does it break.
2. Is it latching ? i.e. does it stay on until you press it again.
3. Is it normally open or normally closed ( best guess open)
Once you know this you should be good to go.

I probably have a spare one of these if it is suitable

You press down to turn on and it stays turned on until you press it again, but it doesn't lock like a standard light switch.

So..
- Momentary
- Latching
- Open
Right?

Mine only has 3 pins, but I guess a 6 pin one if these should be fine if I just connect one side:
