Here's some details to what needs to be done, and while it does take some work and specialty tools 200 bucks seems high to me, and I live in NY!

You need a 3 wire power cable of the length you want to have.

I get a good quality ac extension cable from a hardware store.

You need a new bigger Heyco bushing to fit around the now bigger 3 wire cable.

You also need the Heyco bushing tool to remove the old cable and bushing, and of course you need the tool to install the new cable with its now bigger bushing.

You need a grinder to like I use to open up the chassis hole to take the bigger bushing , or you can use a good size rat tail metal file to open up the hole if there nothing on the inside of the chassis blocking your movement of the file.

You need a crip on wire ring to go on the green ground cable and a crimp tool or vise to put it on with.
