It's not really obvious how to answer your question. Flat screen TV's have a coaxial input. Does your MH have a place to plug in a coax cable and a switch to go from antenna to cable feed? Can you hook up an external cable to your MH? Looking at the old set in your picture, I'm guessing not, so why not show how the current TV's connection and where it come into the MH? Hopefully, they are not coming from under the dashboard
As far as hanging it, said connection has to be near some open area with access to a plug or you will have to run the cable to it. I personally don't know if a MH has studded walls, but if it does, there are a few options. Use a nice piece of wood and screw it to two studs, and then attach a wall mount bracket to the wood, or find a stud and attach the mounting bracket directly to it using small lag screws. The people who sell you the TV can reccommend a wall mounting bracket.
Flat screen TVs also have an HDMI input which requires a special cable. You can hook up a blue ray player and watch movies without needing anythig else.
You can also opt to set it on top of a dresser or other counter - just depends on if you can actually mount it.
