Disable SIP with third-party GPU

Pregunta
I'm running Mojave on a MacPro5,1 (previously 4,1), which requires using an upgraded GPU, and I'm using the Radeon RX580 (which is listed by Apple as supported). I need to disable SIP to enable continuity on the upgraded Bluetooth module I've installed. Holding Command+R when booting to go to recovery mode doesn't show anything on either of the displays I have connected. Is there a way to disable SIP without being able to see a display, or a route that would be able to display via a third-party GPU?
Thanks

You should be able to use the keyboard in order to boot into recovery mode and execute the command while "blind". Do the following:
- Boot your Mac while holding down the ⌘+R keys.
- Wait 3-5 minutes for your computer to boot up. It will likely boot more quickly than this, but better to be safe.
Press the following sequence of keys:
- fn+ctrl+f2 (leave out fn if it's not on your keyboard)
- → x4 (press the right arrow key four times)
- ↓ x4 (press the down arrow key four times)
- enter
Wait around ten seconds to give the terminal time to open. Then, type
csrutil disable
and press ENTER.- Wait another ten seconds, then type
reboot
and press ENTER again. Once your computer boots back up, SIP should be disabled.
