22" TV in 19'Trailer

Has anyone installed a 22" TV in a 19' trailer using the arm that Escape sells... and also has a radio installed?

Actually I can’t see how even a 19” tv would work with the radio there. I had expected the tv would fold flat against the refrigerator wall, but there doesn’t seem to be room for that. Anyone else have experience with a tv and radio both installed?

Did Escape provide extra backing behind the wall for the mount to screw into? And if so did they let you know where that extra wood is?

Another question about the bracket ETI supplies... When you use it in a 17B, can you turn it so you can see the television screen through the window?

Yes the reinforcement is at the edge towards the center of the trailer by the thermostat

Ok, we just cut out a piece of cardboard the size of a 19" tv and tried it out as a test and it works. No problem with the radio. I don't think a 22" tv would work with the radio installed. Problem solved. Thanks!!

Can you give me information on the manufacture and model of you TV mount? Our mount doesn't allow that much flexibility. Thanks.

Thats the ETI tv mount. not sure of the manufacture you could check with them. This one is close. what i like about this mount is you can remove it.

We have a 17B with the Escape supplied mount. We found the holes in the mount were too close together to mount our TV. I used a 10” square, 1/8” piece of aluminum between the TV and mount to marry them together. The TV is a Sharp 24” so the bigger TV may use a bigger hole spacing than the supplied mount.
It covers the thermostat but easily swings out if needed.
It fits perfectly beside the fridge wall and swings out over the bed to watch it.
