Default CX-9 2011 Car Play and Back Up camera Question

Hello! I am newbie here and we purchased a used 2011 CX-9 GT Last year. Love the car but have few question if someone can please help out.

1) There is a wind noise coming on the driver side window while driving specially on HWY and am not able to figure out whats is causing it. Dont wanna take to dealership so they charge me $$$.
- So can anyone experience here help me fix this issue as its very annoying when on long drives.
2) The backup camera is very grainy and hardly anything is visible
- So is it possible to upgrade it? If so how abd where can I buy the camera etc
3) Our previous car had Car Play which was very convenient
- Any possibilities to upgrade the Media-Nav Unit to an Apple car play compatible unit?

Thanks
Shad

I have a suggestion for #1. If you're willing to enter through the passenger side (it's a hassle, I know), this might need two attempts. First, seal the gap between the door and body with masking tape, from the mirror all the way up to the top edge of the door. If that silences the noise, replacing the entire weather strip around the door might solve the problem. If the noise persists, seal the area where the window meets the door and see if that does the trick. The felt/rubber strip on the door that wraps around the window when closed should be replaceable too.
