HI
I have a 88 WLWB XXV. I have mounted a 23" sony lcd tv in the front
of my coach. This coach has cabinets on both the port(left) and
starboard (right) sides of the coach. The original tv was mounted in
the center using an elaboratly constructed custom bracket. Basically
I used a LCD flat wall mount purchased from the same places I
purchased the the TV and a couple of pieces of unistrut. The mount
and the unistrut are mounted behind the board which used to surround
the tv and to which the braket was fastened. The TV fits perfectly
between the two doors. It is basically a surface mount. It completly
covers the hole for the old tv, the look is good, I could remove it
and put the old tv back in place and you would never know that I had
changed it. as far as sound since the old tv had been taken apart to
hook up to the speakers and the new tv had RCA jacks, I just used a
small 12dc auto amp wired the speakers and tv to it. put a small
switch under tv to on and off the amp, works great...especially with
the immotion sat dish on top.

I installed a 26in LCD then one week later replaced it with a
32inLCD. Returning the 26in to the store was the most difficult part
of the upgrade. There are descriptions of each step of the install if
you scroll below the pics in my photoalbum.

Greg, looked at your pictures. Great job. Very neat install. So...I
need to use a 32 inch & should plan on NOT RETURNING IT. Saw your
pictures of the "march" in front of Circuit City. Well done!

Jim,
On the subject of conecting the old speakers to the new tv, could you
give a little more info on the amp and how you made the conection
from the new tv to amp, were you able to just use the RCA lack for
that? And where did you get the amp?
Thanks!

RCA audio Outputs from TV to a small auto amp. I mounted the amp in
the front of the coach connected the amp outpust to the speaker leads
powered it with a 12v lead in from the bus up front. I put a switch
inline so that I could shut off the power to the amp.
