I ordered a set of the brackets used to hang the caninets and mounted them between the windows. I got a piece of stainless and cut a couple of strips to mount on the back of the tv using the hanger mount holes. I formed hooks at the top of each strip. Their spacing determined the spacing of the brackets.

Could you post a photo of the back of your tv showing what you did. I am not understanding how you attach the medal to a tv. I love your curtains.

Thanks for the compliment.

Flat panel tvs and monitors are designed to be mounted to a bracket of some sort with screws. The screw holes will be in a rectangular pattern and dimensions will be given in your manual.

http://www.toptvmounts.com/pages/whi...will-fit-my-tv

I just cut two strips of metal (I used some stainless steel scrap that I had because it won't rust and mar the wall).

I bent the top of them to form a hook which would hook the wall brackets (take a look at the hooks that hang your cabinets).

I drilled holes in them to match the vertical dimensions of my tv. Make sure the top two holes are the same distance from the hook so the tv will hang level.

Determine where you want the tv to mount and place the brackets so the hooks on the tv will match them.

My trailer is closed so I can't send you pictures, but you should have no problem with the hangers.

Take care.

I also like your curtains very much.

We took our curtains down yesterday. I may not be able to fix the one on the passenger side just past the wheel well.

It is undecided if they will go back up. We are looking at different options. I leaned toward these http:// http://www.jcpenney.com/sun-zero-fre...pe=product1_rr but after googling found them for much less elsewhere. I also think I want blackout fabric not just room darkening or light filtering fabric. I have seen how the sun fades the window treatments in a TM that are not lined. I am also considering a blackout roller shade instead of a curtain as an option. If I go with curtains I hope to use something like: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mainstays...White/50015125 this rod only sticks out a little from the wall.

I browsed a RV Blind store but think it is pretty pricey and do not want to spend the monsy they ask for day/night shades or the room darkening rv shades: http://www.stevesblindsandwallpaper....=c&matchtype=e

Just realized that I took the pics and didn't post them.
Attached the hanger strips to the tv.

Mounted the brackets after determining proper height/centering. Spaced to match the hanger width on the tv.
