OK, rookie post.
I'm reusing an old case, and it turns out the front panel connection wires are two short.
anyone know of a source for buying a new set of longer cables (for pwr switch, LED's etc.)?

Hi!
Its not entirely clear to me what you want. Also, location (which country) would be useful.
First of all, the easiest solution: just extend the cables. Splice in some 22 AWG wire and you'll be fine. Use heatshrink (1/32 or 1/16) if you want to make it look real nice.
Online mod companies will often sell these sorts of replacements. (http://www.xoxide.com/acrylicpanel.html)
Or if you just want plain leads with motherboard connectors. (http://www.mountainmods.com/22-inch-motherboard-lead-p-49.html)
Or if you have the ability to do your own crimping, hit up performance-pcs and buy your own USB pins and headers.
Or if you want Lian Li replacement parts including switch assembly, hit up performance-pcs.
Hope it helps,
