Setting Plasma TV Down without Using Pedestal

I would like to set my LG 60PC1D down without using the pedestal. I already have a wall mount, which I am using, but due to the geometry of the situation, I have to have it no closer than 4 inches to where I want to set it down. I don't like the 4 inch gap, and one easy way of fixing things is to simply set it down. I would still use the wall mount, but would have to remove 2 of the 4 screws attaching it to my TV, so it wouldn't be able to support the weight, it would just prevent the TV from falling forward.

The 60PC1D weighs about 120 lbs. I was thinking of using a small foam pad or similar material to cushion and spread the weight around a little. The manual doesn't have any warnings against doing this, but I am still a little leary.

Anyone have any insight on whether or not the TV's "chassis" will support its weight in such a configuration?
