Great thread,
Funny enough, I use the same strips in my Gold Wings as areas of the playfield are pretty dark. I added strips around the loop, in the "clouds" next to the loop and under the cloud plastic beside the ramp. I also added a blue strip to the apron above the drain so the area between the flippers is lit up while playing.
Having said all that, did you replace any of the regular bulbs with LED's? Comet recommends they be installed only in games that have a full or partial LED conversion to avoid blowing the fuses. I did a full LED upgrade in my Gold Wings and have piggybacked multiple strips with no issues.
