For their mod, it sounds like all they need is a momentary switch. You can go to any electronic parts provider and get switches.
Probably not the best for a foot, but one thing that is durable
arcade buttons.
Could get yourself a chunk of plywood board, drill holes in it
sounds like you need a 1 1/8" spade bit
and stick a Happ button in. Those arcade consoles are pretty durable.
There are a bunch of momentary foot switches I see on Amazon:
