Your way is actually pretty close. The only other thing we did was to bring the 550 cord down and around the pipe that supports the spare tire so it couldn't just fall off. To make it more secure, you can also put a piece of 550 cord through the lower holes and bring it up and around the top of the support pole as well.

Maybe you could use thinner wire for more flexibility (nylon ?) ...

As long as your setup is logical you can't go wrong. There is no SOP for such a thing LOL.

Thanks Guys for all the advice.
I redo the warning sign attachment and below is the result, hope it looks better now.
I will be painting the cord black.
