TV Mount: Can I fit a 100mm-hole TV onto 200mm VESA arm? (1 Viewer)

[boymayo]

I have a pre-installed arm with a non-removable, tilting 200mmx200mm VESA plate (no other holes). I just bought a new 43-inch TV and the new TV has 100mmx100mm holes.

I really don't want to take down this firmly installed arm. How can I adapt the 200x200 plate to fit a TV with 100x100 holes?

A question first. Are you positive it's 100mm spacing in the VESA mount on the TV, and you don't have it backwards? I find it difficult to believe any 43" TV would have a 100mm VESA mount instead of 200mm.

Most popular 43-inch TV on Amazon weighs 16.5 pounds and has 100x100 VESA holes:

Here's a Toshiba with 100x100 VESA:

Just google "100mm to 200mm vesa adapter". Amazon lists them for $15.00

False. Those are "extenders" to fit a 200mm TV onto a 100mm arm. They specifically say they are not for downsizing.
