Appears to be a rebranded Cobra Classic 29 WX or slight variation, by the way.

Radios that size mount well on the heater vent cover, as Mike says. The internal mounting fins seem to hold up to the weight ok over time. You may need to pull the lip of the dash down a trifle to make a sort of catch so the cover doesn't tend to slide out (which puts lots more stress on the fins).
