Default Spoon engine damper

The Spoon ETD requires to notch off the bracket which holds the fuse box in place and Spoon doesn't have the plate/bracket to hold it back in place If you want the fuse box to sit hangin then go for it.

J's ETD doesn't do this correct?

No ... J's come with a proper bracket and heatshield replacement as well. However, it'd require some modifications to fit onto LHD cars as this is a RHD kit.

But it isn't "plug and play" ...you have to take remove a welded fuse box bracket before you mount it...

I have the J's and you just use a hammer and a chizzil and knock off the bracket that holds the fuse box. Its very easy to do. Take 20 seconds and then you just install the bracket for the ETD if you dont already have the ETD and STB combo by j's since the Combo already has the tab on the side. Overall Its easy and isnt going to cause a problem.

Not a problem until you want to possible remove the ETD? Regardless of how easy it is to remove the welded fuse box bracket...its still not a simple bolt on that some some people are led to believe...and I cannot say the end result is worth the trouble of removing that piece in the first place...looks good though don't it?

Even with the Spoon one, I've been trying to figure out how to put it there
