Windscreen seal and drip tray under bonnet would be the places I'd check first.

Park in a jet wash and sit in the passenger seat looking under the dash and get a mate to spray the car with the lance. THat should help you narrow it down a bit.

Twist it and give it a bit of a pull while you lift the clip (dont go mad mind !) if its been in there a while it'll be a bit on the tight side.
