Use the same bracket that we use in our PTVUpgrade.COM
upgrade kits for a professional installation!
This is what you get in the TiVo Mounting Bracket Kit:
(1) Bracket
(4) Blue or Black Rubber Grommets
(4) Metal standoffs
(4) Machine Screws with Lock-Washers
(4) Plastic Spacers
(2) Self-Tapping Screws
(2) Flat Washers
Insert the blue Grommets into the slotted holes.
A small screwdriver helps make it an easy job.
Insert the metal standoffs into the blue Grommets.
Turn the bracket over and insert the
(4) 1/2" Long
screws thru the white plastic spacers and into
the metal standoffs in the blue Grommet.
Turn the disk drive so that the screw
holes in the
disk drive line up with the screws in the bracket.
Using a Phillips screwdriver, snug up all 4 screws.
Note that the connectors are sticking out at the left
side of the disk drive.
Turn the drive and bracket over. Almost
finished!
Locate the IDE and power cable and
move them
out of the way to make room for the new drive.
Slide the drive bracket into position,
lining up the
two metal prongs in the TiVo chassis with the holes
in the TiVo Mounting Bracket.
Secure the bracket on the top side
with the two Phillips tapping screws and washers.
Note that these are self tapping instead of
machine screws. If this concerns you, remove one
of the screws
from the A drive and use it instead.
