Sorry, can't help ya with your picture, but if you can't end up finding it, your local dealer should be able to get it for you the code if you bring in your VIN.

The radio code is 4 numbers.
So its either 2923 or 1289

thats if the radio code is even on the label (I have never verified that). Just noticed your EDIT above. I guess you SOL, man. Have to go to dealer with VIN number. Some dealers charge, some dont.

Where exactly did you find that label? If its in the wheel well it should have the radio code - the dealer is supposed to put that there.

I'm betting 1289 is your code. Did you get it wrong several times in a row? Then you have to wait for an hour to try again.

It may also be in your manual on a little sticker.

It should be 1289. Give it a try.

Been there, done that.
