Default Tow Hooks.....

What's the best place for them on a 00'Si? I'm setting this up for easy dyno tuning, quick connect and disconnect. Suggestions for placement on front and rear please. If you got the pics, show'em. Also, let me know if you drilled a hole or just used the factory bolts. And what brand is the best. Thanks.

Most use one of the factory tow hook mounts in the front, and the middle hook in the rear, but I don't know if dyno facilities would allow just that one hook in the front. Whenever I've gone, the used both, and secured it, double checked it and everything.
