Smile Towing/Strap Down Points

We are going Saturday to pick up a 2004 Mazda RX8 with a blown motor, so we are trailering it back. What does it have to hook to so that we can strap it down front and back? We just need to know what to take with us and to expect when we get there. If you could post pics of the towing points, that would be great!

Thanks

Download the PDF of the owners manual. It tells you exactly where the tow points are.

I would use axle straps around the control arms, or use tie downs on the wheels.

The tie down hooks aren't good enough to use for trailering
