You can get replacement Vizio remotes from Walmart, $10. As far as the pedestal, I can't locate one either. I would suggest checking Ebay frequently. I recycle LCD sets and come across rare pedestals. If you would like, visit our website, click on Contact US and leave your contact info. I will put you down on our Wish List and contact you if we get the pedestal in stock.

I can only figure that the cabinet is Not part of the TV's normal design and it has been just sitting on this cabinet for a long while?
If this is so then it has by weight and heat sweated itself onto the top, synthetic feet are made of complex materials including oils which get exuded then form a quite powerful glue action, also that spray polish has baulking agents to make it look good in use these act as glue.

If this top is glass then its pretty well resistent to most things, try windolene glass spray its safe and dissolves many things on glass as a cleaner (or other surfaces). Move up to say WD40 a mineral oil again safe wipe clean with meths spirit to clean up just add in a bit of tilting to break that grip.

Hope this helps......

Removing the Pedestal Stand

1) Carefully lay the front of the unit face down on a flat, cushioned surface such as a quilt or blanket. Leave the stand protruding over the edge of the surface.

Note:

Extreme care should always be used when removing the pedestal stand to avoid damage to the LCD panel.

2) Remove the jack pack cover on the back of the TV to expose the pedestal stand screws. The jack pack cover can be removed without tools.

3) Remove the five screws shown in the diagram below. This will allow removal of the pedestal stand.

4) Once you have removed all five screws holding the pedestal stand in place, remove the pedestal stand from the TV by sliding the pedestal stand a way from the TV (Remorve 5, 4mm or 5/32" Allen Bolts from back of TV.)

No but you could always put something under the stand most can only be tilted for lighting reasons.

If you're referring to the original pedestal base sold with the TV, your best bet would be Ebay
or Craigslist.

On Ebay, search in the Category: Electronics > A/V Accessories & Cables > Mounts & Brackets >
using the search string "vizio 50 pedestal stand" or "vizio pedestal stand base" and you should get a few matches. For example, this used pedestal stand, which has a current bid of $9.99 USD, or this new pedestal stand, being sold for $149.99 USD or Best Offer.




Hope this helps!

Five screws

The stand is usually held in by 4 Philips scres on the rear of the TV.

The stand itself has 2 "Arms" that point upwards, about 4 inches, they go up into the base of the TV, screws then go in from the rear of the set, low down, to secure the legs in place.

The stand, swivel mechanism and "arms" all stay together.

Good Luck, I hope it helps.
