Expert Reply:
I prefer the hard tonneau covers like the BAKFlip G2 Hard Tonneau Cover, # BAK26601. The hard tonneau covers offer excellent durability and would be more difficult to break into than a soft tonneau cover. This tonneau cover will fit the 2006 to 2014 Honda Ridgeline and does not require any tools or drilling to install.
The tonneau covers for the Honda Ridgeline do not come with a built-in locking mechanism, so you would want to use the tailgate lock to lock the cover. If the tailgate cannot be opened, then the tonneau cover cannot be opened.
If you do not have a tailgate lock on your Ridgeline, then you could add the Pop and Lock Custom Tailgate Lock, # PAL6100, that you referenced. This is a manual tailgate lock that will work with the factory backup camera. This lock comes with a black housing, but it is also available with a silver lock housing as part # PAL6102.
