If the immobilizer is working you will need to have the ECU flashed to turn it off.  Then you can use an aftermarket dash.  Second generation Monster dash?  I wouldn't state impossible since that is an absolute,  but close to impossible for sure.  ECU and wiring are completely different.

MotoGadget and AccuGauge have digital units . . . Also Koso . . .

If I'm remembering it all correctly, here's why an '09 dash won't work on an '08 & earlier:  CAN-bus communication protocol.  The '09 has it, the '08 does not.

Look to MotoGadget if you're serious.  You'll have to re-wire the power circuitry to your turn signals as the flasher unit is on the circuit board inside the O.E. gauge cluster.
