I would suggest just replacing the Keyboard much cheaper, but a few more steps and then you have to be careful with the back light but it is still easy to get off the keyboard

This requires a keyboard replacement. The power button is not independent. To make sure we get you to the correct part please give us the last four figures of your serial number.

UPDATE:

Apple MacBook Pro "Core i5" 2.5 13" Mid-2012 Specs

Identifiers: Mid-2012 13" - MD101LL/A - MacBookPro9,2 - A1278 - 2554*

You can either replace the whole upper case or just the keyboard:
