I've bought a flat panel TV wall-mount from futureshop for my condo living room. The wall mount is made by Sanus(Sanus Adjustable Tilt Universal Flat Panel TV Wall Mount (VMSAS-03) - online sale for $70 less!) and it has a short extendable arm. Not until I returned home and looked at the specs of my condo, and only to learn that I have metal studs in the dry-wall instead of wooden ones. In the instruction booklet of the wall-mount, it specifically said that the hardware(assuming that they are talking about the long screws for the mounting) provided in the package is only for wooden studs, not metal, not concrete etc... I've never installed anything like this before. What is the solution here? Would I have to go to hw stores such as Reno-Depot or Rona to get the metal stud fasteners? If so, I don't even know how they work vs. regular screws. The mount itself weight already 35 to 40 pounds, and I assume that the panel TV(which brand and model yet to be determined by my wife and I) will probably weight abut 40 to 50 lbs(plus the short extendable arm). Any expert here has any ideas on how to mount or what hw I should get to mount this onto the wall? Your advice is much appreciated...
