How to connect additional thermaltake fans, if all motherboard headers are used !?

Hi guys, to begin with. Please see my build that I'm expecting to receive soon: (Please note: I'm not building this PC myself, the question is based on how it will come setup I guess)

Question:

As you can see the case is thermaltake, so it has 3 thermaltake fans, 2 in front, 1 in rear .. Then the radiator is also thermaltake, with 3 more thermaltake fans.
Since I'm not building this PC my self, I asked the company building it to connect all the fans to mother board to be able to SYNC and use software like MYSTIC LIGHT.
Now, when I get the PC, I'm planning to install 2 more Thermaltake Pure 12 ARGB (which are the same ones used on the radiator) to install them at the BOTTOM of the case.
I'm not an expert and never setup these kinds of fans before, I'll be installing 2 more at the bottom, and I want them to also SYNC with the rest of preinstalled fans and also use MYSTIC LIGHT and use PWM.
How will I be able to do this please? Say for instance all the other fans used all the motherboard headers, what am I going to do to connect these to SYNC with all the other ones. Will that still be possible if there is no more space for them to connect on the mother board?
