Help with new build

I'm in the middle of my first build and was wondering where to plug the 2 LED lights that come from the fan and the front of the case. I'm using a Thermaltake Tsunami case and the plug for the two lights is one yellow cable for each of the lights with a three pin connector at the end. I'm not exactly sure if I plug these onto the mobo somewhere or if I need some type of adapter.

Are you talking about LED lights for the power and hard drive activity indicators? Or are these something else? Your description is confusing.

Do you have a digital camera? If you do, take pictures of what you're working with and attach them to your post.

No its not the HDD LED its two LED's: one comes from a rear case fan that lights up the inside of the case blue and the other one comes from two blue LED's that light up of the front of the case blue. I'm at work at the moment so I can't take a picture of them but if you're still having trouble understanding me, I'll take a pic of it when I get home and post it.
