Hey guys I recently started out getting my tank together and wanted an inexpensive but good looking option to mount my DME155e LED. I didn't want to use the cables to hang it and found this mount for component theater equipment on amazon: Amazon.com : Peerless Adjustable Component Shelf for AV EQ : Audio Video Component Shelves : Electronics

I found some brackets on some old computer equipment I had and used them to mount the LED. The mount has adjustable width and length (unfortunately not height).


Total cost of around $40, just the mount, 2 brackets and screws.

Very nice and clean.
Looks like you could mount almost any led fixture with that mount.
There are people asking questions all the time on how to mount their leds. Be sure to watch for those threads and post your idea and pictures.
