I'll try to disassemble front panel to see if my head unit has a wifi port.
Q1: What about car service? If for example I go to the dealership for oil change and they upgrade car software. Do I need to repeat carplay activation again then?
Q2: I don't have a Windows PC. Only Macbook. Is it possible to make remote activation from virtual Windows running on top of VirtualBox?
Q3: Do I need to buy a wifi antenna and plug it into wifi port if my head unis has a port?

1. Dealer would not program car during oil change, but if you have services that required dealer programming, CarPlay needs to be reactivated. If FSC CarPlay FSC Code was utilized, it does NOT need to be replaced as it remains valid.
2. Mac you need Bootcamp.
3. WiFi antennae will always improve phone connection, but many do not use and it works so long as phone is close to dash.
