Fit metal strip that comes with it to the back of the Mic if needed(dont need to with my Icoms) Magnet is removeable and area cleanable after. Sticky on magnet can be replaced with mobile phone antenna pads as you change vehicles. Cheap as chips no holes and no scars.
Interesting idea Nick. Do you have a supplier for this sort of gear?
Another way is to use velcro hooks on the mic to the carpet.
The carpet isn't velcro-friendly. Already tried :-(

Velcro I used to fix speakers to the dash close to the windscreen (XH ford van)depends on the carpet, dash mats are usually velcro friendly . The magnet phone mounts are available from DSE, Super cheap and most car type stores or phone places . My last lot were about $8.
