Bedroom TV replacement?

Has anyone changed the TV in the bedroom of a class C Greywing 29MVP? I would like to put a smart TV in place of the one that’s there. I can’t find one that will fit because the power cord is in the middle of the back of the TV and it sticks out too far. I’ve tried 3 TV’s and none work. Any ideas? TIA

Hello, I switched ours out for a Insignia NS-32DF310NA19. That is a 32" "smart" TV. Because of the larger size it doesn't open as much as the smaller TV but we haven't found that to be a problem.

Hope that helps.

Thank you. I bought a 32". But when I tried to mount it it seemed like I wouldn't be able to lift it to get to the storage. Has that been a problem?

Not really. Like I mentioned it won't open as much as when the smaller TV was there but it still opens plenty for us. I will try to get some pictures for you today so you can see.

I just replaced mine with a 24 inch Samsung. I had to
carve a little notch on the back of the tv to use the existing mount and drill a few new mounting holes. Well worth the effort to upgrade.

How do you connect to the internet when you're on the road?

I have a Jetpack from Verizon....I will most likely upgrade to a small commercial grade router(Cradlepoint or Sierra Wireless) you can pick them up used fro $200-$300 and then you just need a SIM card from your carrier.

We have a 2015 29MV. It has the TV on the left side of the wardrobe stack and the storage space behind it. We replaced all of our TVs with Vizios. They seem to have the widest range of sizes. I think we did 26 or 28 inch. Has been in place for over 4 years and no issues with the Vizio in a mobile environment.
