Looking to upgrade the front tv in our 05 Meridian to a hd model. Any recommendations for a turn key swap?

A 32" Sharp Aquos LCD TV available from Costco for $650 works real well as a replacement for the overhead 25" Sony TV. It is one of a few 32" LCD TVs available that has only a 30.5" width. The available internal cabinet width is only 30 5/8", so that TV can be installed without any modifications to the side cabinets on either side of the TV.

The least work is to install a 26" LCD TV but provides a substantially smaller picture. We find it much easier on the eyes, with our 32" LCD TV reading the onscreen guide and menues of the satellite service.

HERE are some pictures of our installation.

I missed the original post. Great job. We're replacing our front TV with an LCD next week and this does give me ideas.

You might also want to take a look at forum member SargeW's earlier post of his replacement. A little different approach. Due a search and you will find it. Good luck

Thanks Harry B. I searched but did not find your previous post on this.I like the idea of the larger screen. We have a smaller sharp in the bedroom and I like it better that the sony in the front.I will go down to costco and check them out. Bill
