What's the best way to tie bungee cord to a bolt-snap?

Hi all,

What's the best way to tie bungee cord to a bolt-snap? I am not looking to untie if afterwards, just the most secure knot to use.

Thanks,

Simple is good. Overhand knot at the end of the bungie. Burn the tip to prevent fraying. Tie another overhand knot around the boltsnap. It can't slip off over the first knot.

Two opposing grape knots for me.

Rather than tying on, I crimp with C rings/hog clips, then cover in heat shrink.

I singe the ends with a lighter a little too much on purpose. I want them to ball up so they can't pull through.
