Nah I have searched everywhere, even searched my kids pockets - my guess is its in the homes of the brat children who last sat in the rear row of seats......

If you've got the patience to remove some of the trim around the headlining, you can find several of these clips which you can safely remove without anything falling apart. The easiest ones to get to are under the two panels you see in the roof when you open the tailgate. You could also remove a couple from the panel on the tailgate itself.

Where the grey cloth-like roof material is fitted to the metal work of the van, its held in place with the grey clips. However, these are covered up by the plastic trim above the rear windows so you can safely remove a number without it showing (and your headlining won't fall off either).
Those ones on eBay should also do the trick.
