Option 1: Have the IMU repaired.
Option 2: Buy a replacement IMU and have it programmed to match the ECU and key transponder.
Option 3: Buy a used, matched set of ECU, IMU, and key transponder.

Costs will vary so its hard to say which option is the cheapest. Get quotes and do some searching to find the best deal.

You should be able to lock the passenger door from the inside and then lock the drivers door from the outside using the mechanical key in the door lock.
