fitting a 27' screen into my cabinet
Ash...Housewares:
Okay, from what I'm picturing in my head it sounds like you'll want to nicely tear out the old, busted shelf/housing that came with it and put in something else. I think you have the right idea with 4 brackets - 'L' shaped. Make sure to screw them in from the outside of the cab and glue them. That could be why the one that came with it busted.
I'll try to get a pic of my monitor housing and post it, 'cuz I also used a 4 bracket method. I won't be able to get that up for another 10 or so hours, sadly.
Hope I've helped,

Okay, here are two pictures of my monitor. I'm sorry they kinda suck, I had to take them with my phone. When my cab stops sucking my money away I'll have to invest in a real digital camera.
The first one shows the L bracket from the front. Don't forget a slot to slide the lower monitor bracket in.
The second shows it from the bottom. The piece of wood on the left is attached to the monitor only.
Once again, I hope this is what you're looking for.

Hey mate,
Im also from AUS and had trouble finding a TV slightly smaller than 68cm so i ended up with a Sony 68cm trinitron (even heavier than a normal 68cm)
Anyhow I had trouble with finding a mounting solution but got there in the end.
Have a look at this post and also there is a monitor section on my website have a look at that too.
Any questions let me know

Try a 15" monitor. It should fit in your cab easily with no real weight problems.. ;D
