Dash cams are illegal in Ireland as far as I know cause they record sound...

They are not illegal to use in Ireland, probably won't stand up in court with the data protection shite but not illegal.

Once you advertise the fact there's CCTV in the car you're good to go.

No audio.

Most dash cams can record without audio. Once you have stickers you are good to go.
