Where to find optional motherboard components (IEEE1394 and USB Bulkhead)?

I purchased a Gigabyte K8NS Pro from newegg and seem to be having a hard time finding the optional IEEE1394 (firewire) and usb "cables".

From the Gigabyte Manual:
For optional IEEE1394 cable, please contact your local dealer

What I am really after is just a few firewire ports which were supposed to be on the motherboard, but according to the manual the rear ports are all USB. Does anyone know where to find the optional IEEE1394 firewire "cable" that Gigabyte suggests? My main gripe is that these adapters usually cost more than buying a PCI USB/Firewire card and I cannot find one for Firewire!

I guess I will let anyone else know who is interested, I found a solution here from directron.com for $5.99.
