Expert Reply:
The Brophy Clamp On Camper Tie-Downs like the Bed Mount # HSAB referenced in your question are not compatible with your 2005 Chevrolet Silverado because of its plastic bed rails.
I recommend instead going with bolt-on tie-downs like you mentioned that are designed specifically for your truck. I have attached a link that will take you to our available selection of Torklift Camper Tie-Downs that are designed for the 2005 Chevy Silverado. You will want to use the drop-down menu at the top of the page to select the correct fit.
For example, the TofkLift Custom Frame-Mounted Camper Tie-Downs # TLC4203 and # TLC3205 are designed for the 2500HD, 6-1/2 foot bed with board or step underneath the truck and a factory hitch installed.
