Sorry, I didn't realize the TSB didn't tell you how the covers come off.
:-(

Here's a link to a PDF that shows the installation of the alarm system
in a '97 CR-V. Removing the covers is explained.

On your Accord (and most Hondas of that era) there's a long bolt that
goes thru the hinge point of the steering column. The big adjustment
lever you're talking about has the 'nut' welded on it. You need to go to
the other end of the bolt and tighten it up. About 1/2 turn will
probably snug it up. You'll see it has white paint on it as a LOCK. Use
contact cement or paint to re-lock it when you're done.

The Chilton's manual for your Accord would be a good investment, and
very interesting reading too.
