Has anyone had to mess with there front TV?

I need access to the side of the front large TV.
Does that black front plastic molding snap into that area that
Also has the wooden frame behind it. Taking the four screw out
Of the wooden frame does not appear to give me enough room
To get to the side.

There is a picture attached of the TV.(http://xa.yimg.com/kq/groups/zvEj42zuctEKk6ds/or/JEiGNqrkeNM4eIRllw--/name/IMG_0025.jpeg)

Looks to be very similar to what I had in our 07 Allure, the plastic moulding is part of the TV and not removable, the TV is secured on the back side with horizontal aluminum bars. I found access to the side and back of the TV through the cabinet on the P/S, in my case the panel was a little tight, may 5-6 screws and wedged in but I was still able to remove it and gain access.

My '05 Allure has access panels from the adjoining compartments on either side.

You didn't say what year the coach was. On mine I have an air vent behind and that comes off and have good access. Some of the other panels come off around the vent. Just remove the buttons and the screws are under them.

Thanks,

If I use my computer at home, it puts my signature on it with no problem. If I use my iPad
It never puts my Signature on any message I reply to or originates

Greame, our coaches are only 5 numbers apart.. yes the only access I have is the panel on the right side P/S
Of the TV and a panel at the rear middle. Dang that's not what I wanted to hear. So I haven't looked too much into into that area. But I will
Now. Hopefully, I will be able to get at the nuts without too much trouble. Others have said that the Tv is heavy when U cut it loose
From those bars. More than one person to handle by themselves. Thanks for the info.

I just took a look at the aluminum bars (still in my garage) that were on the back of the TV and there are 2 holes in each bar that were used to screw into the back of the TV (Vesa pattern). The bolts that you are likely seeing are used to keep pressure on the backside of the TV which in turn pulls it against the wood moulding on the front. With the access that I had I seem to recall that I removed the screws that were attached to the back of the TV. Sorry I can't recall how heavy it was but I know for sure that when I pulled the TV out I did it on my own, probably used some tape or rope attached to the door knobs on the cabinets to stop the TV from falling out.

Good luck
