    I want to mount my 24 inch tv in a company t680, but there isn't a factory installed mount in my truck. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to go about doing this. I'm getting sick of moving my tv every time I want to go into the sleeper.

    Can you give us some pictures so we can have an idea? The last KW I was in was a T600

    If you have to pay for it anyway, why not go to the parts window at your local dealer?

    I bought a cheap $30 swivel mount at Walmart. Then drilled 2 holes through the upper cabinet and held a small wood block there and screwed the mount into it. Well supported and very sturdy. Then again it is my truck so I can put holes wherever I want

    the t680 has the bolts and mount area built there rather you have that mount or not. I think it would be worth getting the kenworth specific mount, I have used one, it's nice how it snaps in folded up. I am in the process of buying a T680 that doesn't have the mount, I am going to snag that used one off ebay for 150, after I go to the dealer and make sure a new one isn't 140 bucks. lol
