I am looking for something like this BUT in silver/metal/aluminum finish button:

(http://i1290.photobucket.com/albums/b536/Rome241270/1_zps31196ae8.jpg)

The casing is 2mm thick so i will need the button to stick out at least by 1.5mm above the casing.

For the hell of me i cannot find one....any ideas?..........prefer to get from Digikey or Conrad as i have to get parts from them and would save of postage.

 :help:

Are we talking about Tactile switches or push button?

If we are indeed talking about Tactile switches you are limited on styles if your searching Digikey for 3.5mm actuator height.
Try widening your search. If you check out the 4.3mm lengths you will find a few more styles maybe like these.........
