PV500 wall bracket

jet_andy · 25-10-2005, 10:20 AM

Quick question, can't find answer in other threads. What is the thickness of the plate on the mount bracket and does it go flush to the wall, or are the fixing points raised? I ask as I want to get the bolts and my screen isn't delivered yet. I'm assuming a bolt that can fix material up to 10mm thickness is OK (guessing bracket is 3-4 mm and flush) but next option is 25mm.
Thanks.

The metal on the standard wall bracket is around 2mm thick and does lie flush to the wall. I used 6 solid wall bolts and could happily hang off the bracket when finished. Bolts for 10mm will be absolutely fine.

You need wxtra depth mounting bars or 45m spacers for use with the vieras because of the beer belly at the bottom of the plasma.

Mal,

I prefer to think of it as it's ar*e rather than a beer belly
