Recommended Cost-Effective Tonneau Cover for a 2007 Honda Ridgeline
Updated 03/06/2019 | Published 03/05/2019 >
Question:
Im aware of restrictions created by mounting rails for some bed covers on the under bed trunk in my Ridgeline model and am fine with the restrictions it creates. The main issue for me is the restriction the rails would impose on its hinge movement back into the main bed of the truck from its position on the tailgate. Also, if that would work, would the bed cover fit over the top of the bed extender. I have the standard bed extender sold by Honda. Im also trying to stay within a reasonable budget on my purchase so am looking to stay within a reasonable limit on my expenditure. Thank you for your time and assistance in addressing my question.

For your application I recommend going with the Tonno Pro Hard Fold Hard Tonneau Cover # TPHF-600 for your 2007 Honda Ridgeline. This aluminum and vinyl cover actually mounts on top of your bed rails so while you lose access to your stake pockets all you have to do is open up the cover and you have full access to the trunk in the back of your Ridgeline. I am not quite sure what you mean by the restriction of the rails with the hinge movement back into the main bed but you wouldn't have to worry about it with this product.
The Tonno Pro cover is cost effective, allows you to retain full use of your trunk, cannot be opened when your tailgate is locked, comes with a limited lifetime warranty for the hardware and a 10 year warranty on the vinyl, plus it comes with some accessories (cleaner, seal, truck bed light, and gloves).
The one thing that this cover, or any cover for that matter, won't do is cover the bed extender that you have. The cover stops right at the end of your bed rails.
