The tv is mounted on that plastic triangle, sort of...... I had to stick some black foam (approx. 1cm thick) to raise it above the plastic so the fit was pointing more up, but that is mainly because I was tired of bending the wire to get it perfect (it's pretty hard wire as you probably know). You could get it so it 'hovers' above the plastic if you get the wire just right. As mentioned in my previous post you have to do this so it doesn't foul 'things' box when it opens.
At the end of the day it's what you want out of a mod to where you place it - meaning I personally don't want the tv picture distracting me whilst playing so being right up high facing on an acute angle is ideal for me. It's the people watching me play on the left hand side that get to enjoy the extra bit of bling this mod gives. It also lights up that very dark corner when you dim the lights. And - at least for me growing up - it fits the theme where old skool tv's were always wedged in the corner of a house too....!!
If you put it on the ramp then you would be able to see the picture better but it then covers the playfield/ramp (definite no-no in my books) and it sort of looks like it is tacked on. However if it was an interactive mod displaying different things depending on the game play then the ramp would be ideal.
I've added a larger photo so you can see that it is visible in that top corner when you play - it's just not 'in your face'. My advice - try it in this location, it can be done with some patience, and if you don't like it move it back (it also gives you a chance to give the back area a bit of a clean too!).
