So I recently built my first pc and when selecting my case I made sure it had front panel usb 3.0 and 2.0 ports. I settled with the Thermaltake Commander MS-I epic edition case.

I got all the way through my build and went to plug in the front panel stuff and low and behold the usb 3.0 connector was not the 20 pin connector I thought but just another Ian 3.0 to run out the back of the case and plug into the back of the motherboard. Then I look and see that there is NO wire even coming from the back of the usb 2.0. It's missing lol
So two questions. 1. Is there a way to connect the 3.0 plug into an adapter so I can plug it into my motherboard via 20 pin connector and 2. Can I buy a wire and sodder it onto the back of the usb 2.0 front panel hook up? Or should I just got buy a new front panel with the wires I'm looking for?
