Is there a Mounting Bracket for the Factory 7- and 4-Way Trailer Connectors on a 2011 Ford F-150

Question

Question:

I am replacing the factory hitch on my 2011 Ford F150. I just went out and looked at my truck and the 7/4 pin receptacles are kind of integrated into the hitch assembly. It looks like I will be able to just pop them out but then what? Is there a bracket that I can order that will mount the 7/4 pin receptacles?
