    Has anyone replaced their Air Filter (NOT CABIN) on a 2001 Civic?
    If so, is there a screw on the air filter cover that requires some
    special techniqe to remove? Because when attempting to remove said air
    filter cover, there is one screw that won't come out - the threaded
    part is spinning around. How does one remove the cover to replace the
    filter?
    Any help is appreciated.

    Does this screw re-engage upon turning clockwise?

    Those screws unscrew but are held (loosely attached) to the
    cover by a washer/locknut. You should just need to lift/pry
    a little on the cover, and it will raise up and expose the
    filter.

    Looks like the following, right?
