Question : Any ways to convert a box TV wall mount into one for a flat screen?
A few years ago I got a wall mount for my tv. It’s brand is PRIMETIME. I was wondering if anyone knew of attachements that would allow me to convert it into a mount for a flat screen tv so I don’t have to spend the rediculous price of buying a new mount?

I think (not sure what your mount looks like) that you will need to buy another mount. If your mount has a platform for the box tv to sit on and a strap or something like that then you will probably need another one. This is because flat screen tvs are thin and so the base is very flimsy compared to a sturdy box tv. Therefore, flat screens are mounted without a base. Flat screen mounts attach with screws to the rear of the tv, not the bottom. Therefore, I think you’ll need a new mount.
