Can't I just replace the Immobiliser? Why do I have to go to the dealership?

My 2001 Boxster S got caught in a New Orleans flash flood and corroded my immobilizer and now the car won't start and does a faint ticking.

Because it was under the drivers seat and super easy to remove, I took it out and put it in a Crest Ultrasonic cleaner. Alas, it didn't save it.

So I went on eBay and found this complete with keys: But someone told me that "only the dealership can replace ECU/immobilizer"
