Why would you want to relocate your oil filter? Not being a dick just curious...

Well Honda's oil filters are in such a pain in the a$$ spot. Reloctaing the oil filter makes oil changes a bit easier or at least changing the oil filter itself.

yeah i hate changing the oil filer... that thing is a bitch to get up to and get some tq on it to get it off... thats why i always buy the hella nice fram filters with the grip on the end. cause its hard to turn that bish.
but its worth it cause for the same price we all pay someone else to change our cars with reg POS oil... you can put in really nice full syn. or a blend...

If you love your car don't use Fram oil filters. they were tested along with some other brands and they bursted.

I use a Craftsman oil filter attachment for my socket wrench. It gets up there pretty easily. but most of the time I can undo it by hand. when you put the new filter on just put it on hand tight.
