They're incomplete for FireTV, since you have to sideload the actual KODI app first. Here's everything you need for FireTV:

First, download the KODI .apk file to your computer. Link here: http://mirrors.kodi.tv/releases/andr...rmeabi-v7a.apk

Second, enable ADB on your FireTV by doing this:
Quote:
  • From the main (Launcher) screen, select Settings.
  • Select System > Developer Options.
  • Select ADB Debugging.
Third, download ADBFire. This is an app you'll run on your computer(Win, OSX, Linux). Your computer will then connect to your FireTV over the network via ADB that you enabled above(they must be on the same network). The ADBFire app will allow you to do anything/everything you want to do with your FireTV. Including installing .apk files like KODI.

ADBFire Download here: http://jocala.com/

Once ADBFire is installed, run it.
Under Control Devices, click New.
Add description as FireTV.
Input FireTV IP address in the Address field.
Leave other settings alone.
Click Save.
Connect.

Once connected, you can click the Install APK button, and install the KODI apk you downloaded in step 1.

Once KODI is installed, you can then continue with the other instructions to install Fusion, then Addon Installer, and have a nice GUI list of all addons you need.

Bonus: Once KODI is installed, you can also install what's called FireStarter. This will give you the ability to launch KODI from the retail Amazon menu by double clicking the Home button on the remote, as opposed to digging through the Amazon apps menu(side loaded apps don't appear in the Recent list in the retail Amazon menu by default). A single click will return you to the Amazon Home menu from KODI. It's basically a Home menu replacement that's customizable.

Let me know if you have any questions about any of that.
