If you don't have the original lamp cord then i guess the easiest option is to just cut and connect. You can also just cut the female end of the ballast and install a regular female plug end if you have enough wire there and a male to the lamp side to make the connection. keep your lamp cord as short as possible.
Good luck.

I have the cord that is attached to the reflector (male end) and the a small 4" cord coming from the ballast (female end). From you're email it seems you suggesting running the small 4" ballast cord directly to the reflector? but thats not possible with the short cord. I thinks thats what your saying?
The alternative you mentioned cutting both cords, can I just replace with a standard 3 prong electrical plug (similar to an extension cord) or will this not work? I'd prefer this method over just cutting and taping back together.
thanks again.
