fagnaml Report post Posted June 11, 2018 My motorhome has the original 19" Panasonic analog television in the bedroom that the wife and I can't use as there is no convenient spot in the bedroom to place a HD to analog converter. Some Goggling this past week found this short video on replacing a similar size analog TV --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-uwlBVyI_I In the video, the original "frame" is mounted on what looks to be a 3/4" thick piece of oak (or some other hardwood that becomes the "cabinet door" for the original analog TV "box". The hinges and door clasp look "undersized" for supporting a new flat screen television but the concept looks like something I could actually do! Given the width of the wall space that my current 19" analog TV consumes I'm probably limited to a 13.3" LED TV (maybe a 15.6"). What does the forum think about the analog TV replacement concept shown in the video? Thanks for your thoughts! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfe10 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 Concept is OK. Agree, mechanism securing door/TV to cabinet doesn't look up to the job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kaypsmith Report post Posted June 11, 2018 I agree that the hinges and a door clasp needs to be heavier duty. Remember that the screen dimensions on a tv is diagonal not horizontal, and with the fact that the tv will now be attached to the added on door, you can actually use a larger tv than what is now mounted inside the cabinet. In fact I have used a 32 inch led where the 19" crt style used to be, I find that the thinner models adapt very well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfe10 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 Yup, measure your space and take a yard stick with you when you go shopping. May have to settle for your 2nd choice TV to get the right size. And, I for a bedroom where you don't have a sound bar, make sure the speaker is on the FRONT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desertdeals69 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 I put a 40 inch led tv in place of a 19 inch. If you want to see how I did it I will be at Gillette and I can show you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
