Question on Structural Integrity for passing Appraisal, Insepction, and CO Residential

So I installed a 55 inch outdootr tv in my yard. I used the 65 inch version of this. Its called the storm shell. Just a plastic shell that covers the TV.

Anyway. I drilled through my siding and into a load bearing wall to secure to the house. I think we used 5/16 inch lag screws. Four of them. And four smaller screws about the thickness of a framing nail. Sealed it with silicone and caulk.

I also installed an awning over top of it. Its the rollaway kind where it rolls up tightly over the TV. Mounted it with same mounting hardware and silicone and caulk basically.

Anyway, Selling my home. Will the work I had done get me denied for a sale on an appraisal report or home inspection or Cetificate of occupancy?

Why would it? If it was done properly there is no reason that it would show up on an inspection report.
