How?
By virtue of the fact I'm asking the question, please make your answer as idiot proof, as possible.

Just follow the YouTube video, it's actually pretty easy!

I use paradox which is a wizard build. Has loads of addons that self update saving you the hassle. Looks good too with a different home screen etc.
You need to register with them but there is an seo-michael guide to install it.
In the light of raids and arrests this morning... it may be unwise, and not in NSC's, nor indeed individuals own best interests, for these subjects to be discussed openly here.

"Five people have been arrested, accused of selling set-top boxes modified to stream subscription football matches, television channels and films for free.
The sale of so-called "fully loaded Kodi boxes" has been called a "top priority" by the Federation Against Copyright Theft (Fact).
The five traders were arrested in early morning raids.
Fact said it believed the suspects had made in the region of £250,000 selling the devices online.
Kodi is free software built by volunteers to bring videos, music, games and photographs together in one easy-to-use application.
Some shops sell legal set-top boxes and TV sticks, often called Kodi boxes, preloaded with the software.
The developers behind Kodi say their software does not contain any content of its own and is designed to play legally owned media or content "freely available" on the internet.
However, the software can be modified with third-party add-ons that provide access to pirated copies of films and TV series, or free access to subscription television channels.
The sale of these so-called "fully loaded" boxes is currently the subject of a legal test.
The five arrests were made in Bolton, Bootle, Cheadle, Manchester and Rhyl.
Kieron Sharp, director general of Fact, said the arrests "should send out a clear warning to anyone involved in the sale and distribution of illegal set-top boxes".
"Set-top boxes loaded with apps and add-ons allowing access to copyright infringing material are very much illegal and anyone involved in selling these boxes should not be surprised to receive a knock on the door," he said.
Fact said it had co-ordinated its "day of action" on behalf of the Premier League and subscription television providers BT, Sky and Virgin Media.
The five have been released on bail following questioning."

You need to read your own post...
It is illegal to sell or distribute these set top boxes when they are fully loaded.. it is not illegal to buy an android box. It is not illegal to use kodi. It is illegal to stream certain content, however, afaik, nobody has ever been convicted of streaming. Do not mix streaming up with downloading.

These are the only two add-ons you'll ever need probably. IMHO, like.
I did read it and I do understand the issues. I did also listen to a radio discussion about it this morning. It is posts like Rugrat's above which stray close to the line of legality.

True but as I said nobody has been done for streaming, yet. I suppose there is always a first..

"Incitement to commit copyright fraud"
It could be argued (and the copyright mob are VERY argumentative) that telling people how to load the software/add-ins which allow them to watch copyrighted content is just such an incitement.
Unlikely that [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] would get his door kicked in by OB, more likely that he'd get a "cease and desist" letter.

Exactly, all these pre built boxes are a nightmare, full of a load of uselss apps that all do the same thing (most very badly)

Stand Or Fall
out of interest has anyone made an add-on as a shortcut in the settings before and then have it disappear each time the system re-boots. can't seem to find a way to make them stay?

Add phoenix as well, phoenix new releases are always decent copies.
I find Titanium and the Daily Updates Wizard a very useful tool:
