Screw Length

Anyone know the length of screws to use to install a wall mount for a bedroom TV in a 2015 Windjammer 3008W?

I need the same question answered for my 2016 Rockwood 8280ws. The bedroom has a spot marked TV wall plate but not sure how thick it is.

i figured it out in my TT by screwing through the exterior wall and realizing i was half an inch too long

BTW, i don't recommend this approach

Ouch,
How did you fix the screw holes? I did the same thing myself and covered it with dicor for a quick fix for now.
