Cabinet lights-change from plug-in to direct wire?

I have found some under cabinet lights that I like at L's--they are Xenon and are "plug-in". However my cabinets are already "direct-wire ready". I cannot find the same light strip I like in "direct wire".

Is it OK to change the "plug-in" cord on them to direct wire? The light strip can be opened up & it looks simple enough to remove the cord with the plug on its other end & replace it with wiring direct.

Is this safe to do?
