Never really seen them go round the petrol cap, fiesta's however are a different story for that!
Also check behind the sunroof on the roof, can bubble, bootlid, where the rubbers hold the glass, also along the front by the windscreen, u need to spend a good hour or more looking really make sure u look everywhere, have the sunroof up and fully open and look down it for tell tale signs.... etc.
Good luck
