The only way to get the correct replacement mounting hardware for your 2007 Chevy Silverado Classic is to know the part number of the Westin grille guard you have on your truck, as you can't mix and match different guards and hardware, as they won't fit. There are a number of different options for Westin Sportsman grille guards depending on the model of your Chevy:

A 2007 Chevy Silverado Classic 1500 LD has Westin Sportsman Grille Guard - Black # 40-1175 or Polished Stainless Steel 45-1170. If you have one of these grille guards the correct replacement hardware is the Replacement Mounting Kit # 40-117PK.

A 2007 Chevy Silverado Classic 2500 or 3500 has Westin Sportsman Grille Guard - Black # 40-1245 or Polished Stainless Steel 45-1240. If you have one of these grille guards the correct replacement hardware is the Replacement Mounting Kit # 40-124PK.

Please note if you aren't sure what have and decide to try the hardware anyway, it will not be returnable.
