    Slim as it might be, the holes can be attributed to you if you didn't mark off the holes when you did your truck inspection sheet.

    Im not exactly sure where the last guy mounted, but standard company install does not use the cab wall. They use a giant metal plate attached to the outside of the TV cubby. The bolts go through the cubby into the plate. The size of the plate distributes the weight over a larger area of the cubby so the plastic cubby won't break. If it does, Prime installed it, I have record of it, and I can't be blamed for it.

    This is my 2nd company truck with a Prime mounted TV and it has failed yet.

    Save yourself the hassle and have the Prime detail shop do it. Otherwise if it breaks sonething on the truck your gonna be crying about not getting your last paycheck when you quit, or how Prime garnished your check when you got transferred to a new truck.

    The problem I have with mounting a tv is, You can only watch it from basicly one place.

    I could sit in my front seat and watch my tv. I had a friend of mine stop by to chat and we both watched it from the front seats. I could watch it in my bed from either end, depending on which way the truck leaned when it was parked. I could put my computer on the steering wheel and have the tv beside me so I could watch it at the same time.

    Well no I cant put it on the dash, cord isn’t that long. My truck has a pull out table/desk and I set it on that. It’s a 13.3 widescreen 12v LED unit. Has a pedestal on the bottom. I just lay it on a shelf when I’m driving.
