Hello Joel, thanks for reaching out. It is possible to use the Redarc Tow Pro Liberty # RED52VR in your 2017 Honda Ridgeline, however, Redarc does not make a custom pigtail for the Ridgeline. So, there are two routes we can go here.
The first, and recommended solution is to actually make your own Redarc Custom pigtail. To do this you will need to order the Tekonsha pigtail for the Ridgeline part # 3070-P. What you do is cut off the end for the brake controller, then connect the wires to the universal pigtail that came with your Redarc controller. A few heat shrink butt connectors would work great for that. This way you can install the controller using the factory plug.
The second option would be to just cut off the factory brake control plug and hardwire the controller. This can work but if you are able to make your own plug like I mentioned above that will be a better option because you wouldn't have to modify anything on the vehicle side.
For the knob you can use the Universal Mounting Panel # 331-TPSI-001.

Hey Joel, how did the installation of the Redarc Tow Pro Liberty go with the Tekonsha pigtail and universal mounting panel? I'm curious to know if making your own custom pigtail worked out for you, as it could really help others in a similar situation!
