my new raptor came with a big flat screen that swivals from the wall, but if your not directly in front of it, the picture sucks. makes it difficult for others to watch from the side. its a 26" olevia flat screen. beutiful picture from the front, not from the side or on angle. anyone else expierence this with there raptor flat screen?

I'm no expert on flat screen tvs by far but..... I believe there may be some kind of adjustment in the menu to adjust the picture??? Just a thought.

The Fuzions come with Olevia flat screens also. I assume they use same model. Ours works great, clear from anywhere in the living area.

Ours has a very good picture from anywhere in the living room. It is on the extender arm/swivel, but we just leave it tucked in the cabinet and everyone can see it fine.

Mine looks great in my '06 Raptor. You can view my post to see how I did it and more photos of the TV and wall.

I think you need to tilt yours down some. That should take care of the bad picture.

nope. thats not my tv. ha ha thanks for the picture though. even if i tilt mine down the picture is blurry unless you stay within 20* degree angle of it. someone said usually the cheaper flat screens do this. im going to read manuall tonight and see if there are a cure.
