Expert Answers about Honda Ridgeline

• What Type of Trailers Will the Tekonsha Voyager Work With
• As long as your new single axle trailer has a 7-way trailer connector with either electric brakes or hydraulic brakes with an electric over hydraulic actuator then yes the Tekonsha Voyager Trailer Brake Controller part # 39510 will work for you. Please keep in mind that if your 2017 Honda Ridgeline came with a factory trailer connector then you can use the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter part # 3070-P to install the above brake controller on your vehicle without cutting or splicing any wires.

• Recommendations for a Pop-up Camper Trailer Cover for a 2007 Fleetwood Highlander Avalon with A/C
• The cover that you have selected, # CA80042, will fit a pop-up camper up to 18 feet long. The height is 42 inches. Given that your camper has high sidewalls and an air conditioner, you would probably benefit from a slightly larger size. The next size up from this is # CA80043 which fits 18 to 20 foot long campers. The extra length will compensate for the height of the side walls and the air conditioner. Given that the trailer has some special features, the only way to be for sure is to...

• Can I Change my 5.30-12 Tires for Bigger Ones on my Tow Dolly to Tow a 2008 Honda Ridgeline
• In an online manual I was able to find the curb weight (weight of the vehicle when unloaded) of your 2008 Honda Ridgeline which was 4,500 lbs. If the tow dolly that you have uses a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern then the best tire/wheel combination for your application will be a size 225/75/15 with a Load Range of D. A tire with those specs, like the Taskmaster # TA86MR, will have a max load rating of 2,540 lbs at 65 psi which will be enough to tow hold your Ridgeline as long as you do not load...

• Towing Mirror Recommendations for a 2009 Honda Ridgeline
• I have had the opportunity to install these universal mirrors on my truck and they fit well. I also went online to see how the mirrors are constructed on the Honda Ridgeline, and can see no reason why the universal towing mirrors would not work. At this time we have not had the opportunity to test fit this mirror on a Ridgeline though. In my opinion, from actual experience, you would be better suited using the CIPA Deluxe Door Mount Mirror, # 11650. This mirror attaches to the window channel...

• Recommended 4-Way Wiring Harness for a 2023 Honda Ridgeline
• We have a wiring harness for a 2023 Honda Ridgeline depending on what kind of wiring your trailer has. Both harness plug into your factory wiring behind your rear bumper. These harnesses also include the necessary fuses to activate the towing functions on your vehicle. Honda leaves these out when they manufacture the Ridgeline. For a 4-Way Harness that controls your trailer's lighting functions you will need the Curt Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector item # C56365. I have...

• Recommended Roof Rack for a 2023 Honda Ridgeline w/ Side Rails
• Yes, the Rhino-Rack Vortex StealthBar Roof Rack item # JB0190 will work with the side rails on your 2023 Honda Ridgeline. These crossbars mount directly to the side rails and have more than enough capacity for a cargo box. They have a flush design which means the crossbars do not extend past your side rails. This also gives them as low of a profile as you can get, which helps with noise and gas mileage. This StealthBar Roof Rack has a 176 lbs capacity. It has built in locks that will...

• Will Curt Echo Wireless Brake Controller Work with 2021 Honda Ridgeline
• Yes, the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller # C51180 is compatible with your 2021 Honda Ridgeline! From what I'm seeing it looks like your Ridgeline comes with a factory 7-Way so you should have to make any wiring connections prior to setting up the controller. I also recommend picking up the Manual Override Button # C83HR so you can have a phone-free towing experience. Once you have all of the settings in place the Echo will continue to activate the trailer brakes on it's own...

• Will Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera Fit a 2008 Honda Ridgeline
• If you look at the back of the 7-Way trailer connector on your 2008 Honda Ridgeline you should see that there is a wiring harness with a round plug and is plugged into the back of the connector. If you release the locking tabs and pull that plug off, it should look like one of the connectors in the backup camera # HM50002. I have included a picture of what it should look like. If it looks like the picture then the backup camera will plug in line with the 7-Way. If it does not look like...

• Tailgate Access if the Pop and Lock PL8600 Coil Were to Fail While Locked
• The Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock - Power - Black # PAL8600 will work well on your 2017 Honda Ridgline. You will not be able to remove the back panel of the tailgate when it is closed and locked. I have not heard of this issue and they have been using this system since 2006 model years, but they do have a manual lock option you can add # PL6250 to replace the factory assembly to allow access in that circumstance.

• Recommended Replacement For A Dometic Brisk II Model # B59516
• The Dometic model B59516 is showing up as a Brisk II 15K BTU unit so the only thing you'll need to check is what style connector your current unit has. If you remove the cover for the air distribution box inside the trailer you should see the controller and a wire harness hanging down from the rooftop unit that plugs into the controller. It should have either a 6-pin or 9-pin harness (pictured below). If you have a 6-pin harness then I recommend the Furrion Chill HE Replacement RV Air...

• Will The Thule GateMate Allow For Use With 55LB E-Bike Having Removable Battery in Front Frame Tube?
• With the Thule GateMate Pro Tailgate Pad # TH823PRO there is no reason you could not use this to haul your Trek Verve+ 3 e-bike on your Honda Ridgeline. I would always be sure to remove the battery to prevent damage while being hauled. Remember the frame on your bike is providing the structural strength for the bike and the battery does not provide structural integrity to the frame. Personally, I feel using a hitch rack like the Yakima OnRamp # Y36FR is a much better solution. This will...

• Recommended Universal Towing Mirror For 2008 Honda Ridgeline
• The Longview Custom Towing Mirror, part # CTM2200A you asked about is not a fit for your 2008 Ridgeline. We do not have any custom-fit mirrors for your Honda. I recommend using a universal mirror like the CIPA Clip-On Towing Mirror, part # 7070. This mirror clips on your vehicle mirror and has a mirror face that measures 7-1/2 inches long and 5-inches tall. This mirror will work on both the driver side or passenger side of your Ridgeline.

• Can Tailgate be Opened with Kuat NV Bike Rack Installed on a 2006 Honda Ridgeline
• On the Kuat NV, # NV22G, when no bikes are on it and you have the arms folded down it measures 13-1/8 inches from the center of the hitch opening to the top most part of the rack. But if you have the arms folded down and also tilt the rack down it measures 11-7/8 inches. So it is possible that you will be able to open the tailgate on your 2006 Honda Ridgeline with the bike rack still in the hitch. You would have to lower the tailgate and then measure from the center of the receiver opening...
