    I pulled that nice mount out of my 780 the day I got it. I need to sell it to someone. Nothing on TV in the last 20 years IMO.

    24" typically. Do know of some that have installed 32" but felt it to be a bit big.

    I had a 32” in my 780 and it was great. I wouldn’t go smaller. Never go smaller.

    What did you use to install it? My truck has that mount also but I can never find the right bracket to fit either a 24 or a 33 inch tv. I have two different size Roku TVs I bought in Walmart and neither fits in the back. Any info?

    I took that bracket off, hate it. A 32" mounts nicely on the passenger side ledge in back. Made 2 square pieces of thin metal to reinforce it then used this mount from harbor freight 17 in. to 42 in. Swivel/Tilt TV Wall Mount - Small TV
    Mount it back far enough so It tilts forward and the bottom will rest on the ledge, nice viewing angle if that's your bed. Or you can push it backwards so the TV is level while sitting. Hope that makes sense.
