Don't really use the rad much....But thinking if i get a rad cover it should deflect heat away from tv.....

Hopefully..

Nice install, can I add a word of advice, you should never run cables at a diagonal as it is easy to forget where they are in the wall. Cables should allways be vertical or horizontal. This makes them much easier to trace and will avoid you putting a screw or nail through them in the future. That advice came from a qualified electrician

welcome to the forums:

Nice clean install, is that a ntl cover or similar you have used to exit your cables from the wall?
If so, good idea.

Also did you cover your cables before plastering?

Re: My first wall mounting.....(sony 46" lcd)

Thanks for the welcome lou... Well spotted on the cover. I have their broadband, but its all installed inside a cupboard. I was thinking how will i finish off the wires out of the wall when i spotted that cover result. Yes also on the cables used pvc channeling. Doing one for a friend at the moment 32" lg lcd on a fireplace and another 2 people want theirs done. Could be a nice little sideline. Lol
