      It's easy.  And you don't want rivets, you need small buttons. (best) or ordinary waist size buttons (second best)  Check out eBay for a selection:

                Has SELA ever carried Sunny Sports socks? Been over a year since I've been there…

                    My first pair of sunny sports came from SELA. They most likely still have some

                        New TV shopping soon, do I go bigger (51") or smaller (43") but with more features (SMART TV, 3D etc…) ?

                        Got two sets in mind, both are in the same ball park cost wise, although the smaller TV is the more expensive by £40ish.

                        The big one is a Samsung plasma, the smaller one is a Toshiba LED.

                              the bigger the better (as the US guys tend to say!) 😉

                              on the other hand, with the "right" features, i wouldn´t mind my TV being a tad smaller as the other one…

                                go for a LED and ignore the smart TV features, they are usual slow, stupid to use and you have a PC to go to the net anyway… You will play a day with them and thats it... imo.... The Toshiba 3D works fine with the glasses, but is only useful if you have enough Blu-ray's available or have access to SKY 3D stuff, if there is a programm...

                                  I disagree with bigger is better. Picture quality is priority one.

                                        And the picture quality on a plasma set is generally better.  Color reproduction is more accurate, no blurring on motion, better off angle viewing…

                                        I have two Panasonic plasma TVs and we love them.  Not familiar with Samsung's offerings, however. Smart TV features are largely useless.

                                          I can attest to the uselessness of Smart TV features. If you have a Playstation, XBOX, Apple TV, Roku, etc. you already have the same features. I have a Samsung 3D LED Smart TV. I don't use the smart features, at all. I've used the 3D a handful of times (there just aren't many films that utilize the technology on Blu Ray). The picture is excellent, though. I had it optimized with a calibration software program and I don't have any of the issues Chris mentioned; which, admittedly, are common problems with LEDs. I agree that for a no-fuss, great picture experience, next generation plasmas are probably the way to go. You certainly get the best value with them. Previous generation's concerns, such as burn-in, aren't an issue, anymore.
