Exclamation Flatscreen TV set in Fireplace (Advice)
Hi,

I'm back again with decor advice.


Ok this picture attached is of how the living room is at the moment, which is going to be decorated soon.

The brickwork (Fireplace) is going to be removed so its just wall. Where the 4:3 TV is now is not going to ba a big enough space for the new 48" Flatscreen TV.

My Idea is to chisel a housing for the TV into the chimney breast where the mirror is, about 6 inches maybe.

This is leaving me with the problem which I need advice on. I "KNOW" people have done this, but how do you get around the wires? I mean, I dont want to house the TV in a small alcove and have wires running from the TV down the front.

Now, Look at picture 2, Imagine the mirror is the TV, and you can see the black representing the wires, this is what I dont want.

Is there a way around this? Bear in mind I will need Scart for DVD, Set top Box, Power, Speakers.

If anyone has any advice it will really help. Thankies.
