what i'm hoping is that getting to those two small screws from the back will be no more difficult than attaching the wires to their electrical studs. something that although proven to be a tedious and uncomfortable task, is something i've had the pleasure to experience already. ha

i'll have to take another peek back there to check that those two screws are indeed accessible from the back...fingers crossed.
