I need advice. I'm stumped

I had an idea for my computer case, the NZXT Guardian 921. I decided I want to buy an NZXT hue to put in it for custom lighting. The only problem is, is that on the front of the case there are three lines that glow, and they are all powered by a single bulb. Is there any way I can get a single RGB bulb and add it to the hue controller, so it changes colors too? I looked around for people doing the same thing and no luck. Please let me know how to do this, if it is possible.

Of course you can, but you have to diy it, like with most mods. https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9264

Can i just change the bulb that is already attached to the wire?

Is your bulb rgb? because rgb needs 4 contacts for ground and all the letters.

And how would I connect it to the hue to make it change colors with the rest of the leds.

Figure out what wire does what on the hue thing and connect the wires. It's just a bulb. RGB bulbs are like 3 bulbs in one. It's veeeery basic.

OK i'll do some more research.

4 wires, 1 wire is ground. 1 is red, 1 is green, 1 is blue. You connect the wires you have rgb. Very little to research.   :lol:
