Question Corsiar 800D USB 3.0 front panel

Still using a Corsair 800D for my builds. I never bought the USB 3.0 front panel upgrade kit and there is almost zero chance of finding one for sale. Is there a way to convert the existing front panel into USB 3.0?

I found this Lian Li converter but the front panel USB is not a pass-through.

Lian Li UC-01 USB3.0 to 20-Pin Converter

The Lian Li UC-01 USB3.0 to 20-Pin Converter (UC-01) can transform the USB 3.0 Type A Header to USB 3.0 20pin Header so that wires (cables) can directly connect to the motherboard.

Would this work at USB 3.0 speeds?

That second one would not work. That's intended to be able to plug a USB 3 port into a USB 2 header. It will run at USB 2 speeds.

If you want USB ports on the front, and you aren't using all of the 5.25" drive bays, you can get a USB 2/3/SD/etc module to go in the place of one of those bays.

Darn, I cannot find it. Its been too long, I can't even remember what the package looks like. I had to double check my email just to make sure I wasn't imagining it. If you can source one go ahead. This is bugging me now. Date of order is 2012 lol.
