help with lights

[onix]

Hi everyone, I need to make a DIY light project for my 55g tank. I am thinking in 4 x 54w t5 lights. What type of ballast I need?, a good one please and where I can find 4 reflector and the bulbs connector? I can put the ballast outside the canopy?

I have to do this projects because I only have 46.75" in my canopy and don,t find any fixture with this dimension.

Thanks
Cesar

This kit comes with everything you need and it's 4x54W and has Individual Reflectors.
