The 2007 Silverado body style as well as the 2008 styles have a place on the bumper where the plug can be mounted. We remove the cover here to give us the hole to mount the plug into place. Once we've removed the knockout from the bumper area we'll place the harness into position. We're going to have to drill holes out to mount this into place. You can use either a pen to mark the holes or a punch tool which is what I'm going to use. Now we can move onto the drilling. Once we get the holes drilled, we want to mount the connector into place with the existing fasteners. Once we have the fasteners in we want to secure them with the nuts on the back side and tighten them down. Once we've mounted the plug onto the bumper area, we just need to make the connection up underneath the vehicle here. This is the back end of the connector we just installed, and this is the other side of the factory 7 pin connector. You just want to plug these together. This concludes the installation of wiring harness part # 30955 on a 2007 Chevy Silverado.

Just installed, took 15 minutes. 5 minutes getting tools & two self tap screws out of shop. Very good pro 576747
Nice replacement for factory plug. Did not use hardware supplied for installing bracket. Self tappers worked much better for me. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars. 564276
Pretty easy to install. I originally ordered a more expensive version that was out of stock. This item is basically the same but a little cheaper. The one I originally ordered was to be connected to the truck bumper with self threading bolts. This one has little nuts and screws that are almost impossible to connect to the enclosed bumper. So I substituted my own self threading bolts. My other concern is the bracket could be a little stiffer. I'm not sure what the more expensive version is like, but this one could use a little more structure on the bracket. Time will tell how it will hold up. I may need some triangulated bracing on the sides to stiffen it up. Otherwise it appears to be what I wanted. I've yet to connect it to my trailers to see how it performs. 167500
Doug S - 01/01/2016Cathy T. was very good help. She set me up with the correct parts for our 2001 Chevy so we can have a 7 prong plug in at the bumper and in the box. We got rid of the cobbled up mess that started giving us trouble and now everything works great. The plug and play took me about 1 1/2 hours to complete. We will do business again if needed. Thanks again Cathy T. and etrailer! 676879
Connected to a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Mounting holes did line up with Draw tite hitch. Connected to factory connector mounted on center of inside bumper fascia. Since I did not have factory tow, I had to have the dealer flash the ECU to activate functionality to the wiring. Cost to flash ECU $62. Had to shop,(most wanted $125). This was a whole lot easier and cheaper than other long way around the block harness options. Keep in mind that this will not operate the trailer break functions. Not a problem, I use a Tekonsha 90250 brake control mounted to the trailer and swap the hand held between vehicles. 510787
I bought this style of Electrical Hitch tail light hook up by mistake, this one comes with a bracket and you can mount it in many places using the bracket. My Chevy Silverado has a twist on flange opening which takes a different style model. Returns you pay for shipping, which is not a big deal, but Just make sure when you plan to purchase an item that you buy what you need for your vehicle, etrailer has many models that can go with your vehicle, I just got in a rush, I ordered the correct model item with flange and will be returning this style but everything about this style is good so I rated it 5 stars. 505872
I am completely satisfied. The package arrived quickly and I was able to install on my truck the same day with help from the installation videos. I will definitely purchase from etrailer.com in the future. I have saved money by spending with etrailer.com and doing the upgrades myself. 576830
I bought this 7 way trailer connector to replace a broken one on my 2006 Chevy 2500HD. It was an easy install and only took a few minutes to complete. I tested it with my trailer connected and all works fine. The shipping was super fast. Thanks , etrailer. 454561
Identical wiring, configuration, and mounting to original part. Therefore installation was easy. 589835
Fast Ship! Worked perfect, Thank you 528930
Nice product ,Easy to install and then worked as supposed to . I installed in bumper as opposed to the add on bracket that came with it ,made for a easier way to plug in trailer cord. 124445
I installed this today. Took around 90 minutes but part of that was learning how to get the spare out of the way. I drilled two holes in the bottom of the bumper because of where I wanted the connector to be placed. All necessary hardware came with the unit. This was very easy to do after watching etrailer's How To video. Good job guys, great product. 396795
My 2007 Classic Silverado Crew Cab 4x4 did not have a factory hitch receiver, so I selected the 13322 Curt Hitch Receiver because it closely resembles the OEM hitch receiver and attaches to the bottom of the bumper. Installation was easy, as shown in the videos and described by other reviewers. All holes aligned perfectly. I did not remove the spare tire as it is not necessary. I used two jack stands to raise/support the receiver frame in place while I started the first bolts. I had the 22mm and 19mm sockets needed to tighten and torque the bolts/nuts. It looks great and I now am able to tow. For the wiring I installed the 30955 Hopkins 7-Way and 4-Way Trailer Connectors to the bumper adjacent to the license plate. This required drilling a 2-1/8" hole in the bumper, which was time consuming, but it now resembles a factory installation. I was able to remove the license plate and connect to the factory plug. I ordered these parts from etrailer for a number of reasons: 1) The website is intuitive and contains a tremendous amount of information for the person who is trying to research product information; 2) the selection and inventory is amazing; 3) the prices are very competitive – free shipping for orders over $99; and 4) the dedicated customer service is outstanding – the email communication is prompt. I ordered on a weekend and it was delivered by the following Friday. A very positive first experience. 523319

Finally updated my truck to a better working area for working with trailers without getting down on your knee when hooking up. When I got done drilling the big hole in the bumper, it went quite smoothly. 707666
