I don't have picture of mine, but would highly recommend pushing vs pulling with a tow strap.
We had to cut a notch in the bumper of our Yamaha gold cart, then welded two vertical brackets just wide enough to hold a good size Heim joint. On the car we welded the brackets horizontally to the parachute mount to hold the Heim joint. We then used tubing to connect the two mounting points, and used a Quick Fist on the front edge of the gold cart roof to hold the push bar by folding it up against the roof when not being used. We made the overall length just long enough that we can put the gold cart in the trailer without hitting the bar on the celling of the trailer. The bar stays right on the golf cart even when towing.
