I am looking to source the protective caps for the Inspire 2 and its gimbals where they connect to each other. They are two plastic caps, one goes on the gimbal where it connects to the aircraft, one goes on the Inspire 2 where the gimbal plugs in at. They are also used with the Matrice 200 series as they use the same type of gimbal interface. You would think these covers are simple to obtain, but it seems that no retailers carry them. I have been trying to contact service centers with no luck so far, and DJI support claims that the cover for the gimbals is available to order, but so far I have not received any type of invoice from them to obtain the part. Here are some pics:

The first two pics are the Protective cover for the Zenmuse gimbals (X5S, X7, etc.). The second two pics are the Protective cover for the I2 gimbal port.

Looking for 3 of each, most importantly the I2 caps since DJI claims they cannot be ordered.

You could replace them with a 3d printed version.
A quick google search brought me this file. But there might be better ones.

Thanks Coyut and Flo for the creative solutions to my problem! Have either of you tested these designs to confirm they fit properly on the I2? I ask especially because the comments on both designs question how well they fit. I don't have easy access to a 3D printer, so I would like to know how viable these options are before I try to get them printed.

A friend of mine printed me the "Flo" version almost 2 years ago.
Works well. I use it to fly some light 360° cameras.
