Rigid roll-Up Tonneau availabile 5/31 !!

Someone a few weeks back mentioned a company that was close to production on a roll-up tonneau for the RL. I checked their site, they list it as available after 5/31, and list it for $800. Good video there as well on the install. Check it :

Re: Rigid roll-Up Tonneau availabile 5/31 !!

Has anyone ever had a "rollbak" cover. I have looked at the site but am still curious about:
Weather-proof?
Weather-resistant?
Quality?Strength?
Ease of Installation?
Ease of removal?
etc. etc.

Please post your experience and some pictures of the process when you get it. It looks like a nice product. I am curious as to how they will modify the system for the Ridgeline. Did you ask if they will have a lock that fastens to the tailgate?

Re: Rigid roll-Up Tonneau availabile 5/31 !!

Bliss,

You are right it does look sharp, I can't wait to see the instructions for the RL though, my guess is it will be somewhat harder than most. I see in the Tacoma, they use the bed rails, but these are not even standatrd in the RL, so my guess is you will need to remove the bedliners as you do for Hondas install.
As to a lock, they mention on one of the pages, to use a 3rd party tailgate lock, from your local parts store, so I not sure haow easy that will be to find.

I am mosty interested to see how they move water out, and also how much gets into the bed. They say they would not leave important paper documents in there, well that about the same as mine, the honda cover, anything else I would leave.

Rollbak Tonneau cover - experience???

Has anyone had any experience with the 'rollbak' tonneau cover on a previous vehicle? Like the idea of one for the ridgeline but would like to know just how good they are on trucks currently using them.

Re: Rollbak Tonneau cover - experience???

I really look forward to seeing one on a Ridgeline before I decide. I want to be able to still use the whole bed and fully open the trunk.

Re: Rollbak Tonneau cover - experience???

I too want to get a TONNEAU cover. the RollBak Tonneau cover, will be available after May 31st. Sale price is $798.00 plus $59.00 Shipping in the US
Total would be $857.00. My concern is finding someone to install it, as I don't want to screw up anything. I understand it is not waterproof, but, there are two drain tubes at the front of the bed that let any water drain out to the ground. It is 100% Powder Coated Aluminum in satin black, with a 400+ lb weight capacity. Shipping point is Conroe, TX. If anyone else plans to purchase this, I would sure like to hear how you like it.
