I can confirm - we just got the '2018' cover for my wife's 2015 model... fits perfectly, and 'only' around $100. Thanks evilchargerfan - I have refused to pay Honda's ridiculous $200+ fee back when we bought the car, so we've been waiting forever for either a 3rd party version or a price reduction. Who knew Honda would undercut their own product with... the same product?!? Then again, even $100 is kinda ridiculous for what probably costs them $4 to make!

I'm glad this info helped DaveBaron!
Agreed, with the horrible pricing as the piece is rather cheaply made for how expensive they retail for. I can live $105 but most definitely not $194+.

and to clarify, I dindt get free s&h. I did have a coupon code, that knocked down shipping fees a decent amount.
you may want to add this to your watch items list, and wait for one of those 20% off coupon codes to pop up:
$145.00, free s&h

The hondaparts website you mentioned, the parts manager Louie Moreno emailed me about an hour after I abandoned my web cart, and offered me a 10% coupon on shipping, but I emailed him back and said listen at most should be about 25-30 dollars for shipping to the east coast from CA. For the average online dealer that's what their buying power can get. Now if you get a dealer/company that spends say 2 million with UPS or Federal, that cost drops to like $16 to ship that same package with their volume incentives.
I'm actually a Logistics professional as a day job, and I deal with UPS/Fedex, DHL, freight LTL carriers, truckload, rail etc. I bet you my left nut that this company (and like many others) is marking up their shipping cost from the carrier for a profit. A small parcel cost for a very light but large over 48" x 3"x 3" box about 12 pounds will in reality cost more like a package about 25 pounds due to a thing called 'dimensional weight.' Simple terms, its light, takes up space, awkwardly long, can't stack heavy stuff on it, so carrier charges more, just should be $53 for a zone 7, the farthest distance from an origin point here in the states.
At this point, my comfort zone for the part is $120-130 with shipping included. If its anymore than $150 they can keep it. Though I probably wont wait that long. I really want the cover to prevent prying eyes from seeing stuff in the trunk area, namely my subs.
Marked up shipping cost, ridiculous.

And.....just like that, a 15% savings coupon for an OEM came up on ebay, part and shipping total is $127.46. Right where I was comfy paying. Would have loved to pay $99 for product/shipping plus the cost of the clips. Now I can get my 5 bucks back for the clips and buy myself a beer with it!

I'm looking for a template i guess.
I probably make my own and fashion a blonde wooden version w stock location pivots and hatch strings. The trickiest part is getting the shape right. I envision somw time with cardboard, cutting and adding to get a shape that matches the hatch.
