    I recommend not doing what the previous owner did over our fireplace, which was to run an extension cord through the wall to get power up to the TV o_O

    I redid the tile and mantle for ours as well. We did a 2"x4" marble subway tile and a simple white mantle and it looks much better than what was there previously.

    Most recent picture I have, but missing the crown molding. I had to get the top on there for the holidays for decorations :laugh:

    Yeah I know what wireless is . We still always hardwire all our media locations in new construction though

    and I don't even live under a rock .

    My point was he doesn’t need to go through all that work now. This isn’t new construction.

    This. That's already 20 times better than my grass. For me as long as it's green and mowed I'm happy. Too much other shit to worry about.

    Satoshi, debadged, rear view mirror bracket, tail gate hose clamps, trimmed mud flaps.
    Especially if this tv location is the 'main' tv, that should be the one place that is hardwired.

    It’s where the main cable box is so I’m pretty sure it has to be wired in. So yeah I need a Receptacle box installed behind the tv.

    Don’t want to rely on the wireless connection either.
