I've managed to fit a Cello 19" traveller TV into Tess. It easy a bit of a challenge as there is not a lot of space to work with.
The first issue is where to mount the TV.
The only obvious place is above the double dinnete seats.
But the lockers obstruct the TV if it is mounted centrally and high up on the bulkhead.
Space is the next question. There is only 130mm of "depth" between the washroom bulkhead and the overhead locker so the combined thickness of the TV and mount must be less than 130mm.
After a bit of research, the 19" Cello traveller 2 TV is 46mm thick, and I found the Carter Flex CFA101L TV mount from Germany was only 43mm thick,.
it was the only tv mount i could find that did the job in the available space and seems popular with German Globecar / Possl owners - not cheap at €130 - https://www.campingshopwagner.de/pr...g-Caratec-Flex-CFA101L-seitlicher-Auszug.html
The caratec CFA101L mount is super. It is not only super slim, but extends out so the screen is completely unhindered by the locker when in use, but slides away when not in use.ir also opens 190 degrees, so you can watch TV from the rear bed area too.
Fitting was a bit awkward, but achieved with 4 M4x20 stainless steel bolts through the washroom bulkhead and fixed with stainless penny washers to spread the load and dome headed stainless nuts to finish off.
Happy with the result.
