i didn't need to extend mine but it's really easy.
cut the wire
strip about a 1/4 inch off each end.
cut an extra length of wire (same color, 1 gray, 1 black, and 2 whites) as long as you need
get some conectors, I recomend the weather proof ones that you heat up, home depot or auto stores have them
put in on end of the old wire, crimp it, put in one end of the new wire, crimp it, heat up the conection. and do the same to the other end.

you'll have to do that 4 times for each of the 4 wires on each o2 sensor, but it's easy, and I beleive the those wires are 20 guage wires. someone correct me if I'm wrong.
