p.1 #1Z9 rubber lock cover
Does anyone know the actual name of this part and whether replacements are available?

It sits right on the palm of the grip and as a result, is the first part of the rubber that expands with use and no longer fits in its socket. I eventually removed it as it made the camera uncomfortable to hold, and also just infuriating to deal with.

I know I'm not the only one with this issue. Has anyone else found a solution or a good replacement?

No issues here at all either. I'm out with my Z9 camera 2-4 days a week since January 13th so almost a year.

Not sure if there are many parts available yet. As has been mentioned, contact Nikon

That is the Kensington lock door. I had the same issue and just lived with it until I was having rubber issues across the whole body. They'll replace it when you send it in.
