Vesa Mount Blocked

[dem]

Hi Guys, 

 

Would anyone know a workaround on how i can mount this to my Vesa Arm? The holes are blocked by the original mount and i cant seem to get it off.

Oh! this might work! but will the screws be able to hold the weight of the monitor without the plate being right against the monitor?

I don't know why the manufacturers keep doing this with their monitors.  Whenever one of our customers has this problem, we always recommend using extra long screws with spacers, and things generally work out well with that method.
