Some of you requested some written instructions. Here they are:

  1. Remove the fan LED cover on both sides. This will require a small screwdriver or pointy object to push the retention pins towards the inside. Be careful, they can snap easily.
  2. Remove the stock LED strip. It's not glued on and very easy to remove. You can cut the grey wire connecting them safely.
  3. Cut the new LED strip to the right length. You can cut it at every 3 LEDs. The cutting area is covered by small round magnets. You will have to cut through those magnets with a sharp tool (knife or scissors). I found the closest length was 18 LEDs. This will cause one extra LED to overlap with the first one, but it's not that noticeable.
  4. Insert the new LED strip inside the fan casing, with the LEDs pointing towards the inside. Make sure the 4-pin RGB cable comes out from the same position as the PWM fan cable. You don't have to use any adhesive. Putting the cover back on will hold it perfectly in place.
  5. Before you put the covers back on, you will have to enlarge the hole where the cable runs, because you now need to fit two cables in there. In my case, I used pliers and bent small sections of plastic off until it snapped.
  6. Put the covers back on. In my case, I had a bit of a clearance issue and had to glue the covers with epoxy and hold them under some weight while the epoxy dried so the covers would maintain their original position.

    At this point, the fan will be ready to use. You will have two cables running from the fan: a PWM fan cable, and a 12v 4-pin RGB cable.

    PS: You can probably get an ARGB strip instead if you want to use a 5v ARGB header. Just make sure the LED strip is cuttable.
