Myself, and the cost of a few wall plates.


It's not hard at all. If youre even the least bit handy you should be able to do this.

Not in BR, but I know $100 will get you a TV mounted (including the mount) with wires hidden in Mandeville.

I did that shite myself with my wife bitching in my ear. So it only cost me a few days off my life.

Make sure you have consent from the TV first.

I gather mung from your grandmother. ask her if I'm a woman.

That said, I'm not trusting myself to do this in a brand new house nor taking time to do it.

Do it yourself. You'll need help from a friend. Follow instructions to mount wall bracket and I think the wires are self explanatory. Drill 2 holes. Use face plates. Fish wires down the hole.

I'm not an extremely handy person, but even I can do this.

wth

Get some fish tape, pop a hole in your wall and start fishing the tape through. You can even use a string with a weight on it (screwdriver bit seems to work well in a pinch). Just make sure you have enough length on your wires; otherwise, you be screwed brah.

It would take 2 hours max for you and a friend to do this yourself correctly. If you can't accomplish this, your man card should be revoked.

Funny how opinionated women are when it comes to shite they would never be able to accomplish.

my main issue is that it requires moving an electrical outlet and running wires to and fro a blue ray
