I spoke with my contact at Access about your 2007 Honda Ridgeline and the installation of the Access Original Soft Roll-Up Tonneau Cover part # 834532006953.

They told me that there is no drilling required when you install the cover. They did say that there are 3 Torx bolts that need to be removed to allow the front L bracket to be installed near the back of the truck cab. You would also need to remove 2 more Torx bolts near the rear of the bed on the truck. I have attached a drawing that shows the locations of the Torx bolts that are removed. They said the brackets are a clamp on and do not require any drilling.
