Engine Bay Lighting Locations

I am working on installing some RGB lighting in my engine bay and I am trying to determine the best way to light up the rear of the compartment. I already have installed a long strip along the front of the engine bay basically running below the weatherstripping.

I am trying to figure out the best mounting location for the rear. I have seen several people mount their strips to the firewall, but I have some concerns with heat affecting the long term hold. For you guys mounting yours there, what attachment method are you using?

As an alternative, I thought about mounting them to the bottom of my strut tower brace, wired with quick disconnects in case I need to remove the brace. Heat would still be a concern in this area since it's directly above my intercooler. Has anyone tried this location?

Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated!
