In our 2017 Rpod 179, the TV is mounted on the side of the closet facing the bed. It swings around for viewing while in the dinette area, but anyone sitting close to the screen sees weird colors. But to anyone standing and viewing from screen height or anyone sitting a distance away from the screen both see the actual colors and a normal picture. That's why we need a tilt mount -- to make the normal screen visible to anyone sitting or standing near or far from the screen.
But there is limited area to securely mount a new tilt bracket on the side of the closet. Mounting to the back of the TV seems to be universal on placement of the screws, but not so on the mount to the support wall.
Any ideas? Has anyone changed the bracket in a 179?

Good Afternoon HWHL! there seems to be a lot of interest in tilting the TV in a 179. There is another topic in the forum "TV Tilt" that has some members solutions to the issue. Welcome to the group!
