That doesn't look like any Cobra I've ever seen. Where's the dynamic control that ALL 29's have? Makes me wonder if its some kind of knock-off or fake. Can you open it up and take some good close-up pics of the inside, both parts and circuit board?
 
I wish.....a buddy was looking for info, it came in a toyota pickup that ended up getting swiped, said it fit in a DIN slot like as 29 would not?
looked on cobras site and all over couldnt find ANY info on it anywhere except on a ford explorer site where somebody mentioned it....
UK version or something goofy?
 
Check to see if theirs a FCC ID on the back. I don't believe that radio was ever Sold and Marketed in the US.

I have that radio the cobra29 Ltd wx-d
It does have the FCC I'd tag on back of
Radio it is smaller than the original
29ltd it's works OKAY .
 
TBH it looks like a even cheaper made
Cobra already skimped on thier radios
I'd probably suspect a Cobra 19 would be better than that
I looked couldn't find anything
 
Just serviced one a month ago. New caps, warm white LED meter light and installed a 3 pin standard power jack. Comes stock with 20ga wire thru a Heyco cord strain relief... no good in my book. Does seem built a bit cheap but it is smaller footprint. Different for sure!
