Does anyone have a spare wall-mount bracket for Sony W series?
- Thread starter tanmayj
- Start date
If the set comes with international warranty and original purchase bill and warranty, then yes. The one which i bought from grey market and doesn't have sony warranty, instead the ebay seller offers his dealership warranty.
EDIT: Update on the installation: called up the Sony authorized guy in Indira Nagar and he has agreed to come and wall mount the set tomorrow. Standard charge as mentioned in Sony website 450 bucks. All i needed was that special tool to remove the transport bolt where the stand has to be refitted, still its worth it since drilling everything they will take care
Will post pics of how to turn the stand around and the wall mounting process, once done. Should be useful for others atleast.

How to wall mount Sony W6xx universal stand / wall mount.
Bought it off ebay, its a grey piece from Thailand i suppose. Dealer has extended a one year dealer warranty.
This is the clamp that came with the set for wall mount.
It was anticlimax the service guy did not have the tool since the India models don't come with such a service bolt. Anyways good ol haxsaw blade came handy, made a minus (-) mark and used a regular minus screw driver to open the screw.
CAUTION: Careful you have to be very delicate while marking the screw, ensure its placed on soft cloth and ensure blade stays off the TV sides to avoid scratches.
This is not useful, this comes with the unit and is available as an e copy within the unit.
So here is a step by step guide:
1 - Remove the service bolts. (Pictured above)
2 - Fix the stand directly to the TV. If you have already installed the stand, remove it and then remove the additional clamps (the bit that slides underneath the TV) used for standing position. Now the stand will fit directly to the back side of the TV. Add the two plastic spacer bushes also to keep the plane at level. (Two round blocks in the pic, these are press fit).
3 - Attach the plastic clamp on to the stand (press fit), there is mark which can be aligned and which hold the clamp in place. Clamp is the black part on the centre of the stand in the picture above. Its like cable wrap, can be opened up.
4 - Fix the main bracket to the wall. We used only the small clamp that was directly attached to the wall. You are almost done.
5 - Hang the TV on to the wall using the clamp, the stand bit can be placed inside the clamp, the black plastic part will kind of lock it in place. Final step, use the check/lock clamp on top so that TV is not disturbed in case of accidental nudges.
Hope this helps.

Can you check with your ebay merchant if he would be willing to sell the bracket and bush separately? The Thai version of the TV doesnt ship with them so I've had to improvise...
Regarding the screws, I too had to hacksaw my way out of that situation

I don't think the merchant i bought from had a clue as to what the package had, look at similar listing from him.

Look at the listing, he says no wall mount included. :lol:
But another add here says
SONY BRAVIA 42" 42W674 LED TV WITH 1YEAR DEALERS WARRANTY | eBay
Buy this as mount.
WALL MOUNT BRACKET KIT STAND FOR SONY LED TV FOR SIZE 22" 26" 32" 37" 40" | eBay
I dont think this works for the W series. I visited Croma they said this wont fit nicely to a W series.
From the pic, these are adjustable in height and width, if the depth is ok for w model, you can use is what i feel. For the bottom bush you can use door stopper bush and use double sided tape to hold it in place. Little jugaad but should work.
Next option is to call Sony service guys and pay them some money to get you the clamps off line. Since similar models are available in India they should be able to help you, with some nice talk. If i get some lead will pass on.

Already tried calling Sony Service... Flatly refused to sell me the brackets even though I made it clear I was willing to pay for them! Looks like a part of the Sony initiative to diacourage folks bringing in TVs from abroad... :-x
Get hold of Sony serviceman, not service. If you are trying service, try one of the franchisee, they will be more accommodative.
