    I recently bought a 24" Vizio TV. My Volvo came with a TV but no screws. Anybody know where I can get some or what size I need?

    That info is in your user's manual. A 24" TV usually has a 100x100 VESA mount, which uses M7-0.7x10mm screws. Some mounts may require a bit longer of a screw.

    You should be able to find suitable screws at your friendly neighborhood Home Depot, usually in the drawers in the screw section.

    PS: Yeah, I know... "That's what SHE said!"

    Turns out they put the hardware in here to mount it. Not sure if they are the right size but I think they will work. They were hiding from me.

    Walmart will sell you a "wall mounting kit". It will come with the screws, a mounting tv adapter plate, and depending on kit a swivel to point tv any direction you want other than just on the wall. IE toward either top or lower bunk, swiverl it out to be between the drivers and passenger seat. That way if you have kids, you can use the bunk as a couch?

    Well my truck came with the mount. It's a special mount too. I'll post a pic later.
