Has anyone on here used stock biocube ballast, endcap, and wiring from another biocube to add 1-2 more 36w bulbs to your existing two??

If anyone here has done this, I need to know how where you ran the wires coming from the ballast into the hood. The only part I'm sure of is the pair of green wires that go into the end cap.

On the stock setup, the black and white wires to go the switches. Can/should I just splice the additional wiring into my existing stock wiring? What about the brown wire??
