I installed this Boscam backup camera a year and a few months ago. This review will only cover reliability and customer satisfaction; I humbly suggest that this info will be more useful to you than yet another evaluation of features, usability, etc.
My car is garaged most of the time and the camera is used several days a week. It's been in a few heavy rain storms but nothing severe or involving snow/ice. It has performed flawlessly since it was installed. The monitor has only lost contact with the camera when the battery ran out (I don't use the solar charger). Each time I recharged the battery I had to re-pair the monitor with the camera, but the process is pretty easy and fast. I haven't measured how long the battery lasts but my sense is at least 3 months per charge, and the battery life hasn't gone down. The video quality has stayed the same, which IMO is good and completely fine for its purpose, even if it's not as sharp as the video from pre-installed backup cameras. I am 100% satisfied with the reliability of this camera/monitor over an extended period of time.

Installation on 2010 Nissan Frontier
Okay so first thing's first. Its a very good product and in many situations there are probably no problems, but there are some issues when installing on my platform. First as a general statement, the red T-taps provided arent great. They tend to back off with vibrations, if you pinch down too hard you can cut the reverse wire in half when trying to make the connection, and they arent weatherproof. So if you dont have an internal reverse light housing or have no weatherstripping around the housing its something to be aware of. If you can buy some Posi-taps and use those instead, theyre pretty cheap and a much better alternative. Secondly for the Frontier and possibly other pickups, the hole cut-out on the metal bracket used to put liscense plate screw through in order to mount the camera is in a bad location. Even at its lowest position the top of the camera still interfered with the opened tailgate. I thought i had it mounted low enough but a few days later i opened the tailgate and the plastic hole on the back of the camera broke off (As shown in pic). I had the cut the bracket hole longer using a dremel so i could mount it low enough so it wouldnt interfere. And now the camera is flipped upside down using the other hole to mount it. Meaning i had to flip the screen around so the picture isnt upside down, but now the guidelines are upside down too and theres no way to flip them so i had to turn them off. TLDR: If the taps were posi-taps, the metal bracket had a longer liscense plate screw hole to allow for a lower mounting position, and the back of the camera where the two positional holes are was metal instead of plastic this would be a perfect product
