Default Shorten AC power cord???????

I have a fairly new window AC with a GFIC shielded power cord made by Tower
Mfg. part number 30386-0-LCDI.. I would really like to shorten the cord as
it dangles where I don't want it to dangle. The connection at the control
unit is a molded plug and it can not be shortened there.

The plug end is two piece molded and secured with screws, one of which is a
security screw or I would have taken it apart already - for a look.

Anyone have any experience with these? Can they be shortened? Are the
wires connected to the blades with a crimp or a solder? I can do either if
I have to. I just hate to spend the time to find or make the security
screwdriver to find out that it won't work.
