Sounds simple but in the 2005 Accord, I can undo the 4 screws simply enough, but can't seem to lift the cover off, as it bumps into the front left side of the car.

Any tricks I need to know?

The trick to this is to remove the hose from the air box first and then you can remove the screws and the top will come off easier.

Here is a guide that will help with this as well:

Lastly, I attached the info below from the manual that will help as well. Let us know what other questions you have. Thanks
