jack up your car, support it on jack stands, locate your oilpan and there shuold be a bolt on there take out the bolt and drain the oil but have something to collect the oil then take out the filter which is up there if youre laying down on the ground, if your motor still has the OEM honda filter itll be blue, if not probably black or something take that out be careful cause oil will fall out then take some of the old oil dip your finger in it and rub the outside ring of the new filter and hand tighten it, no oil wrench needed, put the oil plug back in fill your motor with new oil and enjoy! might not be the most clear but you get the idea hopefully you can even google this up and google and find a video

when i do this does the car have to be level? Or can i just jack up half of the car and then change it from there. I only have 2 jack stands
