carlflackNick: Thank you for posting my photos(someday I'll learn to do this). To clarify the last photo, I lift the lever on the bottom and the TV locks back into the cabinet. I still have to cut and router two pieces of oak molding to fill in the top and bottom spaces...........

DougZCarl, Does that particular mount allow you to tilt the TV down so that when you are sitting you don't see a darker screen?

carlflackDoug Z: Yes it does.. My original installation(the box cabinet) was mounted on a downward angle for good viewing. The bracket is a true 90 degrees. The horizonal bar slides forward/backward
(in & out)on ball bearings . The face plate you screw the TV to also allows an additional 10 degrees tipping. Since I was mounting the 90 degree bracket on a tilted surface it is a perfect viewing angle.The bracket is mfg'ed by
Mor/ryde(old axel co)It's a bit pricey. I passed it up last year at an RV show, looked all year for a bracket but could not find any thing close.
This year's show did it, bought one and it sure beats trying to construct a bracket.
