LCD TV Wall mounts?

P

My brother and I just bought my parents a Sony Bravia 46" KDL 46v5100 LCD TV. Great tv, we got it from buy.com for only 850 with shipping! We surprised my parents with it as a late anniversary gift. At first my mom flipped out before consulting her. After we set it up the smile on my mommy's face was priceless. My father felt a little "demasculated" after it was shipped to our house LOL. We just got FIOS to send us some HDMI cables. Its sitting on a TV stand but we really want to put it up on the wall. We were looking to get a mount that would pull the tv out away from the wall and turn/tilt in a good enough distance so my mom can cook and watch the tv.

I bought mine on Overstock...
It was a universal one that does a 15 degree tilt..
It was cheap like 50 bucks and cheap shipping also..

My LCD is a 42" sharp aquos if that helps for comaparision...

Here's a link to get you started....

If you're in the Hazlet area. On rt 36 Airport Plaza, theres an electronic store there called IEI. They have different ones in stock.

I installed a wall mount telescoping arm for my LCD in my basement. I attached it right to the cinder block.

I would just caution how you mount telescoping arms.

The screws they provide can be sub par, and the directions will sometimes lead you to believe you can mount these in ways that will certainly not work in the long term.

I would hate to see your mother's new tv come crashing to the ground.

My wife is counting down the days until we (and by we I mean she ;)) returns to Comcast. She really hates the fios tv guide.
