I use a custom strap I had made on the front with the factory tow hook. It has a snap hook on each end, and then one other one that is in between the two, that can slide along the strap. I hook the front of the car up on the trailer, then let it roll backward to take up the slack. With the sliding hook, the car doesn't need to be exactly centered in the same place every time to have equal tension on both sides like two fixed length straps would.

On the rear, I use those j hooks in the factory tie down slots mentioned above. Takes me about 5 minutes to secure the car on the trailer.
