Samsung Monitor C27F396FHU Backlight diffuser acrylic replace Help

Hi everyone,

I have a Samsung monitor C27F396FHU with panel code CY-PK270BNAV1F and the light guide plate / diffuser acrylic inside the backlight cracked on one side.

The LCD itself still works, but now there is:

a huge bright hotspot/light bleed on the right side,

uneven backlight,

and some minor panel lines.

I opened the monitor and found that the transparent acrylic light guide (the piece that spreads the LED light) is physically cracked/chipped.

I cannot find:

a replacement light guide plate (LGP),

diffuser acrylic,

or any donor panel for this model.

Does anyone know:

Where I can find this part?

If another Samsung panel uses the same light guide?

What type of acrylic I should use as a replacement?

(opal/milky/frosted acrylic, diffuser sheet, etc.)(60,2x34,5cm)

The original piece seems to be around 3mm thick and the monitor is edge-lit from one side only.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated because I’m trying to save the monitor instead of throwing it away 😅
