Default NRG Engine Torque Damper Install help..

I have an 08 tC and bought an NRG ETD but can't find any install instructions or pics. I just need to know where to install the engine bracket. I found a Stiffy install tutorial on here but the pics don't exist anymore.
Any help would be much appreciated. I've searched the forums but didn't find anything helpful in the first few pages of the results.

I appreciate the reply MR_LUV but I've already seen those videos and still couldn't figure out where to mount the engine bracket. I thought it might be the engine mount but that's way too close to the strut location. Wouldn't leave room for the damper. I'll post pics tomorrow

You're welcome. Good luck with it. I pulled my Weapon R one off my xB almost immediately after installing because it added way too much vibration to the cabin for me. Hopefully this'll work better for you.

@Greg S I have successfully installed the NRG ETD. I personally like the feel. I feel the ride is more smooth for me. I was getting a lot of wheel hop and jerks from the engine during acceleration.
Not anymore. I am getting more vibration on the passenger side while stopped at a light but I think it's from the plastic piece under the wipers. Nothing a little sound deadening won't fix

This car wasn't very well maintained by the previous owner but I'm trying to get everything caught up. Needs some engine TLC. Here's a pic and also one of my diffusion panel. (Just thought I'd throw that one in there )
