The mounting holes on the back of the Vizio do not line up with the preset holes.
They are a much smaller pattern.

See attached photo for details.

Since the bottom of the TV will rest on the handle portion of the mount, how could I securely mount the tv to the bracket?

I am open to suggestions but am thinking about using Velcro strips.

Thanks for your ideas and Happy New Year to everyone.

Just a thought: What is currently in place (the metal bracket) looks solid enough to support a normal wall mount that WILL fit the TV. You MIGHT have to shim out a bit for the wall mount to work but...
