    Man, just get a 3-way Oil Filter Wrench from Autobarn. Works perfect for my civic. It acts like a graber and you need a Socket Wrench to use it. I'll show you a pic when I get home.
    Those slip-on Oil Filters are way too big for civics.

    A flathead screw will definately do the job. That's probably the best and cheapest way of doing it, just use it to loosen the filter after that, use your hands.

    you'll also probably hav to make a few holes it in, cos the filter starts to tear. It sounds like a bad way of removing it but just make sure you do it gently.

    You can get an oifilter tool from Kmart even. Come off real easy with that. Never had any problems

    Just get an oil filter wrench (the 3 claw things), all garages have one to remove oil filters.

    Honda parts stores sell a custom "cap" that fits over Honda's small oil filters.
    It has a nut on the end to use your shifter on.
    Makes it easy as. Cost is $10-15.
    Suggest you buy this rather then other wrench's etc.
