Splash guards

I installed my own. It was simple, no drilling necessary.
You should be able to get the install instructions from here.

They look good on the truck. I do wish they were a little bigger, but that is just my preference.

Easy Peasy install. Plenty of room to get it done, too! They just screw on. I used a drop of the removable loctite as a few vibrated out a little after a long freeway drive. No issues since I added the loctite.

I'm thinking about adding the splash guards to my RTL-E... Anyone have these installed and is the installation easy enough? Are they worth the $100 per set of 4? Recommendations? Pros/Cons? Thanks.

They are very easy to install and well worth the money to protect the sides of your Ridgeline.

I will also be moving next spring to a local mountain community (about 45mi. out of my current city) where it snows periodically in the winter. Are there any issues with the splash guards and driving in snow?

Had 'em on our '11 and they accumulate ice buildup so bad the tires rub.
Not worth it, and not having them, I'll be better reminded to wash it well during winter.
Looks better without. It ain't a Freightliner.

Ssssss...no? What is that?
I recently installed them. It was easy enough, but they are so flimsy. Not near as sturdy as found on my Highlander or my Camry. I will keep them on but I would not be too confident about them staying securely in place.
Spray the insides of them (and the whole wheel well for that matter) with PAM or a silicone lubricant or even better FluidFilm once installed and they will not hold on to nearly as much snow. I did a fair bit of ice racing and 20 yrs of snow driving 
if any denver people get them let's meet before you install them as I might have rallyarmor make a set for my ridgeline when ever it comes..

If you're buying them for looks, might want to give this one a miss. For protecting rocker panels and such … you know, we've been in a drought since I bought the truck. So I don't know, but I suspect that they will be useful in that regard. Very easy install. About half the screws are already in your wheel wells and the other half come with the kit and have designated holes where you put them. There's no drilling or guesswork.

As far as them packing with snow and ice, that happens if you are in the snow belt. They all do regardless of brand or vehicle. Simple solution, give them a kick, it all falls off. Easy easy...
Both of my sons have Rallyarmor mud flaps on their WRX's.Spray the insides of them (and the whole wheel well for that matter) with PAM or a silicone lubricant or even better FluidFilm once installed and they will not hold on to nearly as much snow.

Well mine came factory installed front and back. I didn't pay extra for them
EDIT: Canadian Ridgelines come with standard splash guards.
And more than likely you were charged for them as part of the purchase price.The factory doesn't even have splash guards to install on the assembly line. They were put on there by your dealer.
