Google Play on an Amazon Tablet?

So we all know that Google and Amazon don't like to share. Which means that we have to put up with Amazon's lousy app store. Well, there is a way to get Google Play on an Amazon Fire. Here are the steps to get an amazing app store! (Note- This works on Fires running Fire OS 5 and above. This should be 2015 models and up.)

First, download Launcher Hijack from this link. (My Fire was the Fire 7 and I needed to install this but you might not have to if you have a lower model.) And then install the APK to your kindle. If you don't know how to, you can go to my  article and see the steps to install an APK file.
Next, download the APKs in the order that they are linked here-

1 -  Account Manager
2 - Services Framework
3 - Play Services
4 - Play Store

Then, on your fire, install the APKs from the bottom up. Then you will have the working Google Play Store on your Fire! Thanks to Love My Fire for the tutorial and links. Their article is linked here. Please see my About page for my disclaimer. I hope you enjoyed!
