You do not need to replace the handle on your 2014 Honda Ridgeline to install the Pop and Lock # PAL6100. This will not interfere with your existing back up camera, it will install on the on the interior side of your existing tailgate handle system. Currently your back up camera is installed on the right hand side of your tailgate handle, and the external locking mechanism for this tailgate lock installs on the left side of your tailgate handle

I have included a photo that I have extracted from the installation instructions that shows where the locking cylinder will install on your tailgate.

I will be sending you a copy of the installation instructions in a separate email for you to review and determine if you would like to install this tailgate lock system yourself.
