How do i get it to light up?

So i bought a Deepcool Earlkase RGB and Deepcool Captain 240EX RGB CPU Liquid Cooler for my build. 

Currently my specs are:

MSI H81 P33

I5 4960K

16GB KINGSTON HYPERX DDR3

WB BLACK 1TB

THERMALTAKE 675WATT PSU

I want to use the RGB features of my new parts i bought but my motherboard doesn't have RGB headers since it's a very old motherboard. I just want to know how can i get my RGB lights to work? 

 

Thanks in advance.

You could buy an RGB controller maybe, since your MOBO doesn't support RGB headers? Just need to find one that works off of SATA power or something other than a header from your MOBO.

According to some reviews the cooler should have an rgb controller with it, a 3 button thing with a sata plug one one end
