TV Bracket
Permalink  

Hi All,

Great Forum, I enjoy reading it very helpful.

We have recently purchased a second-hand van and the previous has taken the TV but left the folding arms attached.

We have purchased a new TV and I am looking for the square mounting bracket that screws to the rear of the TV.

It has a small bracket which slots into the folding arm and tightens with 2 screws.

I have tried everywhere and so far no success if anyone knows or could help I would appreciate it.

My other option is to buy a new folding arm, cost about 130-00, hoping to avoid this.

Thanks Bill

Unfortunately the square mounting bracket that's screwed to the back of the TV comes with the folding arm support.

Can you get the contact details of the previous owner & get it removed from the back of their TV?

Hi Bill, we had to do the same thing, depending on make of tv bracket, some you could buy just the end bracket but for ours you couldn't.

went to Bunnings and brought the pieces and made my own, cost about $10 to make. pictures attached. hope it helps.

 Thanks, for the info Ross, I have probably got enough supplies in the shed to make it. I will certainly give it my best shot as the Co-Pilot wants it above the bench.

Bill,
I'm not sure exactly what you want but I have the bracket shown in the URL below.
It is a "quick-release" jobby with one half attached to wall swivel mount (which you have) and the other (Vesa) plate attached to TV set.
TV set is easily fitted to and removed from wall bracket by lifting off. My TV set lies on bed while travelling.
Cheers,
Roy.

Well I ended up using a Strammit General Purpose Bracket GPB . It took a few adjusts until I got the position right so that the TV goes under the cupboards. I am very happy and works well. Thanks for all the advice. Billð

Have a look at this page. There are some brackets near the top of the page. They suited a previous enquirer. Click on the pictures for larger results.
