    I have this old flat screen tv that Im trying to mount on my wall...but the base of the tv is very challenging to get off and i can't figure it out.....

    The base is held on by 6 screws.. 2 really easy to remove and 4 that are very had to get to...i can't get a screw driver in there at all.... so does anyone have any idea how i could get those screws out at all?

    they are all phillips head Btw...

    this has been frustrating the hell out of me all day...you guys are my last option lol before i just break the damn base off

    Looks like your gonna have to make a tool. Possibly cutdown a Philips and square off the cut end and use a wrench?

    Usually there is a small snap that you push-in to release the base.

    well this tv is really old, and it wasn't made to be mounted because it was made like in 02 lol...but the base does come off, but the consumer isn't supposed to take it off...i got a universal mount and it works...i just can't get this SOB of a base off lol
