The button click handling is defined in the UI sequence which you refer to with the UIRef element.

You can copy that UI sequence from the wix sources, modify it for you own needs, and then update the UIRef element to point to your own customized UI sequence.

For more details, see my question/answer about inserting a warning dialog which is a similar scenario (though a bit more complex because I only wanted to insert it only if a certain condition is true).
