So I have a JVC HD1 projector and am mounting it to the ceiling. I purchased a Chief RPMAU mount and began installation. HOWEVER, upon screwing in one of the legs of the SLBU bracket (the first part of installation with the legs that attach to the projector and then attach to a metal plate) one of the screws snapped off while I was screwing in the bolt. It absolutely sucks, is not fixable and to make matters worst, Chief will not sell me a replacement part and all warranties must go through the dealer. In my case I have a friend who is an installer and gave me the mount at a discount. He is very busy and I feel really awful saddling him with a warranty/return situation when he did me a favor. Sooo I am hoping for some help here -
A lot of projectors only have three screws which means that if you ever used this product with a three screw projector you have an extra leg. Is there anyway that anyone can spare an extra Chief SLBU leg? I'll pay through PayPal (i'm verified and could involve my ebay account with almost 400 feedback if you'd like more security).
Thanks so much for your time, mjd
