Securing TV in TV well

[sgtpp214]

We have moved the Toshiba into the stick house. We will be buying a digital flat panel TV for the Monty to deal with the change over to digital TV. I am wondering how those of you who did this dealt with securing the flat panel TV in the TV well in their 2980RL? Thanks in advance.

I bought some retainers from Camping World. Not delivered yet so can't report more than that.

A 32 flat does fit in the well but the speaker sound like they are in a barrel.
I set ours to the outside.
I got a 24" wide 1 1/2" thick board and installed ii inside the well and attached it to equal thick large plate in the top of the fireplace compartment.
this give a very solid base.
The top board extends out about 4 to 5 inches and the flat screen sit on.
There are 6 screws that go up thru the base into the base of the TV.
The only thing we do is wrap it with a blanket and then put a strap around it to keep it tight against the opening while travelling.
It say well from AZ to NH this spring.
Remember that flat screens put out allot of heat.

I had a stick of light angle iron that had holes in it. (can get at Lowes or any hardware store). I just made a new mounting bracket. I just cut three pieces and made (2)triangle that matched the holes in the back of the TV, All flat screen have mounting holes on the back. I then screwed the brackets to the TV and then screwed them to the lazy suzan. I had to make a filler for the space above the TV.
Went real easy and fit perfect.

Any chance of getting some pictures, Mike?? Remember a picture is worth a thousand words!!

Thanks. Will take a good look at what I can use. Pictures of your work sure would help, but I think I can figure it out and get TV set up. Probably will have to wait until we actually get the new flat panel to see how I can set it up.
