Default Factory Hanging LCD Television Mount

Hi All,

I just did a quick search and did not find what I was looking for.I am ready to buy a new 12 volt television for my TM.I would like to go up to a 22" flat screen with a built in DVD player and would like to hang it on the bathroom wall above the kitchen sink with the factory mount.The factory LCD TV mount will supposedly handle only up to a 19" TV.

Has anyone with this setup gone larger than 19"? If so,what size? Do you have a combo TV/DVD player? Does the hanging cabinet above the sink interfere with the TV when opening/closing? Does the extra depth of the DVD player pose a problem? Do you have any other advice or information?

Thanks in advance!

I mounted a 22" Naxa TV/DVD:

Using this mount:

Also installed an additional TV/12vdc power outlet on the left front of the sink cabinet.

I found a vertical "stud" in the bathroom wall approximately 13" from the corner. Tapping and listening is the method used. To install the mount, I put 2 1/2" screws into this "stud" and an additional 1/2" screw into each corner of the mount. I chose this mount because it is oversized and spreads the weight of the TV over a large area of the wall. The mount base does not hit the bed platform when the TM is folded. I lift the TV off of the mount and place it face down on the couch when traveling. Have been using this arrangement for over a year with no problems.

We have a Audiovox 12 V with DVD player.

And here is a link to a much cheaper tv mount:

But my TV is hung in an ELKMONT where they have mounted it on the outside wall so I don't know if your setup would work.

Thanks Mike and cochise!

I spoke to Eddie in parts @ Trailmanor and he said the factory TV mount will handle up to a 22" LCD flat screen TV up to 20 lbs.I went ahead and ordered it.Hopefully it will work out alright as it was expensive at $63.00.I booked marked the two you came up with just in case!

I bought a Skyworth SLC 2269A LCD HDTV/DVD Combo.So far I am very impressed with it's performance.It weighs only 12 lbs.,is only 3" thick,runs on as little as 10.2 volts and has special surge protection!

I used the factory hanging mount with a 26" LED (10lbs) works great, it just fits on the bath wall and I can slide it out towards the stove for movie time or hang it outside.

Default Factory TV Mount locations

Just bought a new to me '09 TM 3023. Looking for a TV mounting solution for tv viewing while laying in the rear queen bed.There is a cable/ac outlet/12volt plug at the floor next to the breaker panel. It sounds to me like most of you are describing a tv mount that would be installed on the forward bath wall next to the kitchen sink. I like that idea also. Any photos and/or ideas for both mounting locations? Thanks, Brian

Our mount is movable, and some pictures are provided here:

It will also hang on the rear bath wall, but i did not take a pic of that.
