The only way to open the mobile charge connector is destructive to it's case. If you buy a replacement waterproof case with waterproof cable glands (like what the OpenEVSE uses) then you can just put the whole thing in the new case. Or you can put the mobile connector guts inside the Gen 1 Wall Connector.

An alternative if you only need the extended length occasionally is to put a female port on the end of the long cable so you can use it as a Tesla extension (note that you should not use it on Superchargers!). Here is a female port you can use, but note that you would also need to buy a hydraulic crimper (can buy one from Amazon for less than $45).
