I was looking at the tonneau cover made by Honda but i din't really like it. I saw the Bak liner cover and they toled me that they were going to make 1 of there pruducts for the ridgeline. I was just wondering if anyone hear of othre companies that would make a tonneau cover for the ridgeline.

 

[Ultra-HOG]

Yes, there is one - allmost! See the postings under Accessories - "Better Tonneau Cover Wanted" and / or go to www.bakliner.com. They have a roll-up cover that looks perfect (to me, at least) that should be released very soon.

Retrax makes a cover for the ridgeline that will be available the first of May. You can see pictures of the cover the third week in April at www.rolltopcover.com

Looks good, but *expensive*. Does anyone know what these things <will/might> cost?

Oops, sorry, went to the rollbak site and got a clue there. Not bad!

 

[GSXR600]

The cost on the retrax cover will be $889.00 plus shipping.
Pictures should be ready at the end of April.

I want to buy a cover but I don't want it if it leaks. A cover is suppose to cover and protect. If you have one...tell me about it's reliability please. Thank you!!

Ladyridge,

My Honda cover will be installed tomorrow, and they are calling for rain and snow, so I will know by Friday how bad it leaks. Will post pictures and details as soon as I can.

OK, it's the fourth week of April and I can't find anything on the Retrax website that indicates there is a version for the Ridgeline. Has anyone ordered one of these yet? It's the next thing I want to purchase for the truck we don't have yet. I don't want to be driving around long without the cover, so I want to get it ordered, but I also want to hear that it's MUCH better than the OEM version. That means it needs to be water tight, have a better lock and roll away.

I have the OEM cover, and it is not entirely watertight, but the amount of water that gets in is minor. Since it never rains in southern California, this won't be a problem for me!! (yeah, right!) I needed the cover right away, because I helped my daughter move across five states a couple weeks ago. I didn't find it a problem that half the cover doesn't move, because we had plenty of large stuff that just slid under the fixed part. It isn't a far reach to get under it. Although this isn't the best arrangement, it is the best that is available now. Maybe version 2.0 will be better, but that won't help now. My concern with the rollup types is how that will effect the look of the bed. The one thing the OEM cover has going for it is the good look, IMO.

I got the same response on April 11 that said it would be 3-4 weeks. Sounds like they are on schedule. Who will go first and post installation pictures and reviews??? We are all what the marketers call early adopters. I usually will not take a chance with a first year vehicle but I figured Honda usually does a good job initially. I have not been disappointed. I'm not as comfortable with RETRAX yet.

I heard that Access Cover is going to offer one for the ridgeline. They are at www.accesscover.com

 

[Topper Birneyh]

I like the Access tonneau. It protects well, rolls up easily and stores just under the rear window, the cost seems reasonable (about $500 installed) but, the installation scares me. Access mailed me the procedure and my feet turned cool. Has anyone else looked at this tonneau?

 

[mauikid]

Does anyone know of someone in St. Louis that installs the Retrax cover, I am unable due to injury? Thanks for any help, vote for silver!

 

[Ultra-HOG]

If no one comes up with an installer for you, the Retrax does not require a certified mechanic or highly skilled installer to do the job. There are no holes to drill or any modifications to the truck at all. With the instructions and your guidance, a high school kid could do the job quite nicely. It only takes between one and two hours. Most of that time is unpacking and reading the instructions. Someone that has installed one before could do it in under an hour. Maybe a neighbor or someone that works at a parts store would like to make a few bucks on the side. If you want to drive to Central Pennsylvania, I will do it for you. You bring the beer. I work cheap - one, sometimes two is my limit.
Oh, welcome aboard!

What a great idea UH. Take it to the local High School Automotive class and see if they will do it. I'll bet they would love the challenge and experience.

I am currently trying to get an answer from access tonneau (agri) on if it interferes with the opening of the in box trunk!!! They avoided the question the first time. I had one on my full size dodge and loved it, lasted and the quality was great!! In fact I still have it I kept it when I traded as well as the hitch there are for sale anyone?

No, you can open the trunk lid with the Access cover installed. I know, I have the Agri Access cover on my RL. Used it today

Diablo.... in case you have not seen it, here is a Tonneau Cover Comparison (pdf attachment) prepared by one of the ROC members...... there's a whole thread on this somewhere.....

Good luck

I am a dealer for Advantage Torza Tonneau Covers.
Advantage has made many improvements to their Honda Ridgeline Torza Tonneau. I would like to provide you with some updated information.

I read where some owners had issues installing their rail because of holes not lining up, this has been addressed. The rail has a new improved end cap with re-positioned holes in rail for easy installation of rail. The rail is now mat black finished to match inside of Ridgeline bed. The rails have also been relieved more to allow trunk door to open further. Rail is padded in this area to keep door from getting scratched when opened.

Advantage has added safety teathers, and a new clip type fastner on bulkhead, used when cover is in open position.

There are "4" different Torza Tonneau's to fit Honda Ridgeline.
All "4" versions are tri-fold, all hardware included, install in 20 minutes or less, NO drilling required, and are water tight.

All pieces, parts and components are guarenteed for life, the material is guarenteed for 7 years.
