Waterproof? Not quite.
Written By
, Kingsville, TX on Sunday, December 20, 2009
Listed as waterproof, but it's far from. Worked great until the first time it rained. For a couple days after it rained, the camera's lens was fogged up from the inside. The fog disappeared but it doesn't work right anymore, the images are just blurry. The only good thing about this all the wires are combined in to one small cord. Buy a better camera, and splice in to the supplied cord.

Great paperweight!
Written By
Dave, Woodbridge, VA on Friday, November 06, 2009
I received this as a freebie with my receiver purchase. I read all these great reviews
before it showed, so I wasn't too surprised when it stopped working. It was great for the
two weeks that it worked. Then it rained hard. The camera worked after that--sort of.
The lens had condensation inside of it. It finally evaporated and the camera just didn't
work the same after that. Then a few days ago it kicked the bucket. No picture, not a
thing. Save some extra cash and get one of the name brand ones. You'll appreciate the
extra money spent on reliability.

Boyo VTL400 Rear-view Camera
Written By
ASK, Driggs, ID on Thursday, October 01, 2009
I got the VTL-400 as a christmas gift last year, installed fairly easily. It is a pain to run the wire under a truck and try to find a good place to have it up out of the way of everything. After about 8 months it just stopped working, I checked all the connections on my head unit and everything was good. Called crutchfield to see about the warranty, and they said that boyo had to do the warranty repairs/replacement. Tried calling them and the people who answered the phone acted like they had better things to do and referred me to their website. Went there and couldn't download their RMA form, tried to email them and never got a response.
Turned out the problem was a break in the wiring harness near the back end, fixed it and got it working. If they used a heavier gauge wire this problem might not have happened.
Wont be buying anything from this company again. As always Crutchfield customer service was excellent. Too bad other companies don't have the same level of service.

Waste of Money

LinemanBorn, Louisiana on Friday, September 11, 2009
This camera looks good out of the package, but won't take long to disappoint. The install wasn't bad at all. Once I hooked it up the pic looked great. FIRST time it got wet it was CASAYED!!(No GOOD) Hasn't worked since, this was after about four day's after installation. It came free with my DNX6140, but wouldn't buy another. It's ONLY 7 days old!!!!

Extremely Poor Quality
Written By
Jeffrey, Long Island, New York on Friday, September 11, 2009
This camera came "free" as part of the Kenwood DNX-8120 package we ordered just about a year ago, and we got what we paid for.
Installation was simple and straight-forward, however the camera lasted only a few months before it began flaking and subsequently nearly rusted beyond recognition. Cosmetics aside, and probably needless to say, but at the ripe old age of 5 months, the camera fails to operate at all. It's now reduced to a rusting, flaking eyesore affixed (illegally in New York State, I might add) to my license plate. I am hesitant to order another Boyo product, but would like to maintain the integrity of my system and replace the hapless Boyo.
Word to the wise -- even if it comes free, don't bother installing it. Instead, opt for something of better quality, durability and workmanship.
