Simplest "mod" ever?

Hi guys,

I recently bought a Corsair 600T, which comes with a fan controller at the top (the dial on this image):

If I turn it all the way down (left), the fans slow down but I can still hear some noise.

So I'd like to find a way to add an on/off switch, to completely turn off the secondary fans.

Any ideas if it could be done and if so, how? :)

I thought it'd be cool to integrate a pressure switch, so if you pressed the dial down, it would toggle the active state.

If I was to go with a normal on/off switch, maybe hooked at the back of the case, which should I use?

Is there something I can get that would interface with these pin sockets?
 
Yeah, I had considered the resistors and the switch.

The fans are silent already, but the PC is in my room and I like to watch TV on it to fall asleep, so I want it to be deadly quiet and more importantly, NO LEDs :)

The fans have white LEDs on them, so it can be slightly annoying. Not that annoying that I really must do this mod, but I thought it could be a cute project.

Meanwhile, I found a perfect example of how to do what I wanted, here:

I'll probably attach the switch at the back, so it's externally accessible, but I'll figure out the ideal place later on.
Meanwhile, time to find a cool switch :)

Thanks all.
