windows 8 - Aero Peek on multiple monitors

I have two 27" monitors, my main one is the one on the left and this has the notification area, time/date and the the Aero Peek button on the bottom most right. I want the second monitor to also display those things or at minimum, just the peek button.


If I make the monitor on my right the main monitor I can get those things there but ideally I want them on both.


Is there a way to do this natively? I know "Actual Multiple Monitors" and "Display Fusion" can do this but I'd like know to if this can be done natively before trying the above.


[EDIT]


I have tried both Display Fusion and Actual Multiple Monitors, both are not good enough. Display Fusion forces me to use its own inferior taskbar and startmenu and Actual Multiple monitors doesn't allow me to use the start8 start menu instead or completely disable the start menu for that taskbar.


[EDIT 2]


Workaround, installed latest Actual Multiple Monitors and disabled secondary start menu as its not compatible with start8. Having two different looking start menus isn't really ideal so i'll just have to do without one until they get this sorted.
