It's a 2000 Montana, 3255RL, 34 footer with the 45 degree sink coming out at the door. I'm attaching the mount above the space you climb into the camper. I've located two 3 inch studs where I'm going to attach a wood plate (12") spanning the two studs (about 17" between the studs) and then mounting another piece of wood on the span to attach the level mount which also pans down. LCD's are getting very light so I'll be under 22 lbs. Any of you do any out of the cabinet TV installations on your toys yet? Will run the HDMI cable down the former TV homes cabinet down into the basement and back up the wall to an official looking HDMI 2 x 4 plate. Same with the power.

Any warnings, etc. ??? I just can't see a downside with this as the Tv once it's tilted just a slight bit down and toward the couch seems to be in the best place it could be.

Thanks.. Gary
