Our coach did not have a TV or a place to put one. we did have a drink tray on the dog house, the more I looked the more I thought that would be the place to put it. I built a box that the drink tray would act as a lid, and made it deep enough that a flat screen tv would fit. put hinges on the tray, attached the tv to the underside of the lid, drilled holes for the wiring, finished it so the color would match the rest of the wood in the coach.



Its out of the way, easy to put into play, and works great.....

Nice. I'd never guess there's a TV in there. I like it.

Hopefully you do not spill the coffee on the back of the TV while driving down the road. It does look good and other than the spill hazard I love it.

Nice work. But without an ignition interlock to keep you from watching while driving, illegal in many states. Make sure the lid is down if stopped by the local constabulary. :-)

Nice job. Looks like a Sharp LCD which can run off 12 or 120 volt. Did you hook it up to run off 12 volt for boondocking?

Richard Ray, no problem, I don't get stopped and at 70 TV doesn't do anything for me. We don't have a satellite dish and watch the TV only when parked in a RV park. Every thing on the coach is up to date,but the coach is starting to show its age, but then so am I.
