Need help with a fan LED connector

[Yammers]

I have a fan with LEDs and it has a 3-pin connector for the fan, and a 2-pin connector for the LEDs. I have the 3-pin connected, and it powers on, but I have zero clue where to connect the 2-pin connector. It is a female connector that looks like this: http://img.diytrade.com/cdimg/2151814/33868559/0/1385013277/Led_Strip_Connector_2pin_15cm_Wire_For_Male_Female_Lamp_Driver_Cable.jpg

Listen, they make connectors that have a 2-prong take-off from the 3 prong adapter.....essentially tapping into the 3 prong main fan's power . The power drain and impact would be negligible. Look for one of those...I purchased a substitute CPU fan for a PIII that fit into the housing like a glove. It too had LEDs and an adapter with like I described. Good luck....I suspect it would really cheap as well!

Just so I can understand, do you plug the 3-prong and 2-prong into one thing and then that plugs into a molex adapter? Also, could you perhaps link me one? I'm not sure what I would be looking for because I'm not really great at this kind of stuff. If you could, that would be awesome!

These are the general idea I had....my CPU fan replacement had an additional adapter with it....think I paid $9.99 USD for it @ Best Buy....hope that puts you on the right path.
