What side brackets are needed to make an OEM grille fit/work? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My truck currently has an aftermarket billet grille on it and I ordered an OEM front grille for my truck. My neighbor owns a shop so I asked him to install the OEM grille in place of the billet grille and he emailed me last night and said he couldn't install it since it needed "a couple of side brackets."

I called him but got voicemail and no reply to email so I thought id ask here.

What side brackets does the stock/factory grille require?

update-

I need the factory side brackets that mount to the core support/frame. I called LMC truck and they only offer the left side bracket- anyone know of a place that sells both?

You will probably have to get one from the boneyard. Should be easy to find and remove.
