Flat screen TV tiedown

I have a friend with a 2005 Alfa See Ya M/H. We took the CRT TV out and replaced it with a 32 inch flat screen, It fit great and looks good.
We are looking for ideas to lock the tv down for traveling.Any ideas will be appreciated. Pictures if you have them.
Thanks

    I have 3 flat screens (one doubles as a computer monitor)

    one is on a swing arm, I swing it back into the cabinet the old CRT occupied and lay Bungee cords over it in an "X" pattern using eye bolts to hold the cords as the first responder suggested.

    The other comes off it's mount and goes in the laundry basket atop the dirty laundry.. Well cushioned, face down

    The big one up front is securely bolted to the frame with the very same brackets the original CRT was (Eventually it will be mounted on a door and the area behidn it used for storage).
  • These can be found at any Camping Store or RV dealership.

    They work. Can be used on any size appliance or TV.

    I am holding down a heavy micro that is smaller than the opening and it has not flown out of the cabinet yet! :B


  • Some TV mounts have thumb screws for locking down the joints. We bought one such mount at Sams Club.
