Lighted mirror, pigtails too short

[Darrel_r]

I'm remodelling a master bath. I got a pair of UL approved LED Mirror cabinets that are recessed and they come with manufacture installed pig tails to splice in a j-box. However they are too short splice together, or even to the centered vanity light box. The last thing I want is blank wall plates over both the mirrors. By code, I can't put them behind the drywall. I have thought about opening up the electrical box inside the mirrors and running longer pig tails, but as these come from china, and who knows what I am going to find.

Any suggestions?
