Built in WiFi

All of the Subaru SUVs have a built-in WiFi. I am just curious whether it is possible to transfer the built-in WiFi from those SUVs to the BRZ? Is that a too complicated unit/harness system or something easier.

Thanks

it's likely part of the eyesight system. just buy a wifi hotspot from your favorite cellular carrier, connect it to accessory power inside the car, and boom, wifi-capable car.

Yep simple as that.
Although I would rather you compare your wireless plan vs a hotspot device not sure which might be cheaper.

Have ATT prepaid unlimited 65/mo no hotspot. Have to get the 85/mo unlimited for 10GB hotspot per line. Looks like the best option but will not provide in car WiFi for dash cam (for notifications when parked) etc.

Will check the ATT Harman spark (OBD||).

Thanks
