As long as everything works i.e. indicators, lights etc etc

I know cfoster had just a row of gauges in his XR2

Shouldn't be a problem

As above not a problem - as long as indicators horn and lights are or could effectivly work you can do what you want.

Some track cars are race cars and they have no headlights as such but I have never seen one get pulled up yet.
