How do I connect the wires?

 

Did you buy a predone kit for LED's or a DIY type kit from Amazon, if you have a DIY kit I have a guide here under Wiring up LED's:

For predone kits it's usually a matter of hooking them up to the PSU at 12V or if it's and RGB kit to the controller first that varies the colors and light modes.

What LED's did your buy specifically like Bitfenix Alchemy or something else, can you post a photo of it, we will be able to help you better with that.

 

If they are single color LED's most are going to be a molex connection where you directly connect them to the PSU. 

 

EDIT: ok those aren't predone LED's they are DIY one refer to the link I posted earlier on how to hook them up but you will require a molex or sata connector and a soldering iron to hook up those LED's.
