Replacing the TVs - Eric Perplies - 11-04-2008 11:54
Plasma TVs don't like to be stored flat. LCD TVs don't mind it.
Plasma TVs don't like very cold temperatures either.
My coach has a typical BB layout above the windshield. I was able to
install a 37" LCD on a swing out arm. It projects 2" below the bottom
of the overhead. It extends far enough toward the curb that I can
only open one of the two center doors. Neither of these items are an
issue. To open the left center door (only when I need to add
electronics) I swing out the TV on it's cantilever arm. I built a
cabinet in the old TV hole. A bonus.

I just posted pictures of our TV installation in a new photo album
named "Bob and Sandi's Little House". This was my winter project
early this year.
What you can't see are the DVD player hiding in an overhead, and a
Xantrex 400W true sine wave inverter. The inverter switch is above
the CD player. The CD player, amplifier, and speakers are all
integrated with the TV.
Bob Lawrence, I know you're out there. The chopper image on the TV
is for you

GREAT job, Bob.
Love the chopper pic.
For you guys that have electronic questions, email Bob here.
This guy knows it all when it comes to doing installs like this. He
had a business before going to work for the state of Washington, but
is current on all these things.
