Wall mount TV swivel

My TT has a spot marked on the wall in the bedroom for a TV wall mount. DW is bugging me to get one but Im very gun shy about putting holes in my walls. This may seem like a dumb question but are those markings pretty accurate, as I said, Im very gun shy when it comes to putting holes in my walls. I already have a 19" flat screen to use. Thanks for any assistance.

    I mounted a backer board on mine as well. Mounted one in the living area and one in the bedroom.

    I wouldn't have any issues as I would think the manufacturer's markings are accurate, plus a 19" flatpanel doesn't weigh much to begin with. Our rig came with a shelf for our bedroom tv but I didn't care for the location. I installed a small piece of stained oak as a backer board and mounted a fully articulating swivel arm along with a 26" LED tv that weighs under 10lbs.

    Use a stud finder, tap on the wall and see if anything is under the wood, and if all else fails, hang a photo over your mistake.
