Just finished up the front Tv remodel. New 40" E series Vizio's, and no more head knocking box.

Same TV we have Bruce.  Install looks good.  i like the way this size TV only extends below the valence by an inch or so.

Roger It came out better than I expected. It's amazing how much the walnut bleaches out over the years, it's the only wood that gets lighter with age no way to match the finish. We ordered the matching headliner material to cover that with. Could have spent a little more time on the cover on the left, but that's for another day.

Just finished up the headliner piece to replace the stained plywood covering the old tv box footprint

Great idea to use a trim piece with the headliner as the cover. I'll have to remember that trick!

I got the material from my auto upholstery shop, he called it hull liner. It matches fairly close.

I needed some of the same upholstry a few years ago and it too was called Hull Liner. I seem to remember the maker/supplier as Jacobson or something close to that.

Nice finishing touch. The  colors match well. Good job!

We have a whitish vinyl ceiling.  I checked at FOT and they didn't have an exact match.  Very hard to match exactly so sometimes you have to deliberately not match.

It is, the PO after Brett put a FS in the stern and we have our small FS from the Airstream, as well. Now, if there was anything worth watching, it would be a lot more fun! Brett's FS sure works great for NASCAR, though!
