Still Watching an Old Set? Replace Your Old RV TV

For years, RV manufacturers built boxes above the front of the cabin to house television sets. Most sets were thicker from front to back than they were from side to side, so they had to sit flush in a dedicated box, aimed straight toward the back of the rig. If you wanted to sit at an angle, your viewing was compromised. Today’s flat-screen TVs can be mounted on a swivel, so you can see them at any angle. Once you find out how to mount a TV in an RV, you’ll wonder why you put up with your old television for so long.

Your television may not even be HD ready, causing you to have to deal with an array of specialized converter boxes and antennas. Compared to the complex setup needed for older televisions, learning how to mount a TV in an RV will seem like a simple task.
