Anybody replace lounge TV in 2016 Journey?
The LG television in our '16 Journey has got lines and needs replacing. Winnebago in its infinite wisdom fabricated the mounting plate in house and has port cutouts specific to a no longer available LG model. I did contact Winnebago and learned that for '17 they did a mod for mounting a Samsung. The mod parts are available from Winnebago at a reasonable price but requires extensive work on the heavy steel backing plate.
I'm on the road and don't have access to my workshop. So, I'm looking at a workaround. I can mount a flush mount wall bracket to the existing backing plate using two of the 400 x 400 mm holes and drill to new ones. The new wall mount will give me about 1.5" of space for cords. The wall bracket has positive locking for earth quakes so road vibrations are not a problem.
Anybody else had to do replace a TV on Winnebago's proprietary fabricated swing out arm or similar application?
