Vogels VFW 140 and Toshiba 32"

I have just mounted my Tosh with a Vogels VFW 140 tilting mount (as recommended by Toshiba) but I can see the mount above the screen.

Is this normal? Am I going to have to cover the mount or paint it?

I have tried various holes on the mount and I have it connected to the TV on the lowest option but I can still see a good 2" of mount.

I can post a pic if I am not making myself clear.

Thanks

I bought a VESA compliant wall bracket, small, neat and sits the tv very close to the wall and cannot be seen from any angle....

Plus, as a bonus, only £19.99 from Tescos.

Must be a large bracket that you've got?

Mine is small (about half A4 paper size) and is currently happily supporting a 42" Toshiba on the wall.

Are there any options to move the position of the actual brackets on the back of the tv, i.e. adjust them up or down?

The bracket is quite large but its what Toshiba said to buy.

There are lots of options for movement but I have it on the lowest. Has anyone else installed the same combination?

I think I will make a very thin box and box it in.

Thanks
