I'll wait for it and see what the final cost will be. Hopefully, the information will be available soon.



This is true, but the difference was only $8 or so and I've already gotten to use it on a trip.

I have some time before our next planned trip. However, if the delay is too long, I will need to do something, and will likely order the mount with the plate that will fit.

Here's the mod using the mount I bought from Amazon. The big bolt and everything to the right are from the factory mount. It doesn't tilt down as far as the One in the first post of this thread, but it makes watching TV much better from our dinette "couch".

So, what's required to get it to work? Amy cutting, bending, drilling, sawing, etc?

Just drilling out the holes on the new tilt head to fit the factory mount's bolt. The new mount's bolt is 3/8", I think, and the factory bolt is 1/2".

While I said I would love to get a bracket a while back, I am not sure what I need to do to actually get on the list for those.  Otherwise I will look on Amazon for the one pictured here.  I don't remember who had to original post.

OK, thx.  We haven't stayed in the Pod yet, so I'll see what happens.  If needed, I'll go with this mod.
