Get some heavy duty high grade extention cord (i use outside weather rated, more reliable in my opinion). Cut your both end and strip the wires down to the clean metal. Unscrew the ballast from the side of the light noting where your white and black wires lead into. From fixture to ballast there may not be a green ground wire, so I ignored it. On the lighting fixture, I used electric tape. White to white, black to black. Wrap good with the tape, then support both by wrapping them bother together afterward in tape. Run wire toward ballast. Where your white and black wires were attacted in the ballast to the ignitor and capacitor... add your extented white and black wires.

I of course am no electrician and i advise anyone from doing any such thing.
