Got rid of the old TV in the upper cabinet in the living room last night (dumpster this morning).  It weighs a ton and I literally had to rip it out...  after I had it out I noticed the aluminum plate that the TV was bolted to.  If I would have picked up the TV in the front and pushed it back it probably would have slid out (with some persuasion).  There was a bracket at the rear of the TV cabinet that held the plate down then brackets up top with two bolts on each side to hold the TV in.  It made me feel like Hercules to rip the TV out but this morning I feel more like Peewee Herman... I would highly recommend getting some help rather than my method!  I do have a nice very large hole where the TV and all the old stereo amp, 10 disk CD player, DVD/Tape player were located.  I removed the old Sony stereo and hooked up a new Sony radio and installed the Sirius/XM adapter to it.  It works great and my wife is enjoying being able to have music and listen to her teaching CDs.  The Sony has an app that allows it to play the XM and give directions on Google Maps or Waze - very nice!  
I'm thinking about skipping the Stereo/Tuner/Amp altogether and just getting a nicer sound bar... much more storage!
