Get an inexpensive electronic stud finder. check around where the sticker is and you can nail down exactly where the backer they installed. You can also find wood or aluminum studs. I would not use anything over 1- 1/2 in long.

Speaking from experience those screws are very dangerous sticking out the exterior wall!

I used the stud finder and it worked! We have the articulating mount. When it’s in the closed and locked position it is still very bouncy. DW wedges a piece of pool noodle between the television and the wall. No more bouncing.

I screwed mine into the cabinet frame on the opposite side of the wall. Made for a very solid attachment.

Thanks that's what I thinking of doing just take the TT back to the dealer I got from and have them install the TV Wall Mount. I really don't want to screw things up like hit a wire with the screw and cut the wire or something I think taking it back to the dealer is much better and let them do it. Thanks for Info. Guys.

2”x3”

The standard wall studs on a 212QB are 2”x 3”. The area behind the sticker on the rear wall identifies an area of a backing plate they install between the studs foe mounting. I suggest mounting it directly to a stud for a more secure hold. I used 1.5” lag screws. When you take into consideration the paneling and the thickness of the plate itself you will probably be in the range of 1.25 depth into stud.

Email Jayco Support with your contact informing and the VIN # of your trailer and ask for the schematics of your trailer. They will send you an email in a day or two with PDF for your trailer. Ask for what you want, ie layout, studding, plumbing etc. I asked for everything, and leave it in the trailer.

Email Jayco customer service with your VIN number and ask for the schematics for your trailer - studs, plumbing, electrical, etc. This will tell you where the studs are and what thickness you are working with.

I am want to install a swivel type wall mount for a 19" TV over my the dinette area. Dose anybody have any idea how long of a screw I can use. Need long enough to hold my TV but not to long to go though the whole wall.


Thanks
We used those butterfly toggles that you push through a hole and then they flip out behind the paneling, work great! Picked up a mount from HF that allows us to easily remove the TV which we put on the mattress when driving. We added another mount above the bedroom window.

I use a firestick, and starlink.
An AWESOME combo in my opinion
