Those gauges are cool, but what's with the 84-85 ones being twice as much as the other ones?

Didn't someone make a 3 gauge pod for the pillar? There's 3 guages that should be in view at all times. Water temp, Oil temp, and Oil Pres... Or do they make a combo gauge that fits any of the above into a single guage?
