Is straight interior sides, do I just glue mount some blocks and place the board in front of the blocks to screw into?

Sorry for the delay, been a little tied up.
Easiest was is this...
Buy a board, like a 2x4 though you'll probably want thinner. Mount the monitor onto it. Get a few brackets, mount them on the end of the board, then the other side of the bracket to the interior of the cabinet. Use wide brackets. Since LCD's are only about 12lbs give or take, it should hold just fine. Though if you want to be safe, drill through the sides of the cabinet and sink the bolts, use washers and nuts on the interior, cover the bolt heads with wood putty and repaint or cover with side art.
You can glue for safety too if you don't use bolts from the outside, trust me, Gorilla glue isn't going anywhere.
