backlight replacement in Acer CB281hk 4k monitor?

Stooovie

I have a second-hand Acer cb281hk 4k display that is enough for my needs but after 30k uptime, the backlight is not as bright as I'd like it to be. The backlight SHOULD be W-LED according to displayspecifications.com but they do not list the panel model and I can't find it anywhere. It's probably the Innolux M280DGJ-L30.

 

1) is replacing the backlight worth it? The display would be fine for my needs otherwise and the money is tight right now

2) anyone has any idea what panel is actually in this display OR what is the model of the backlight strips?

3) basically any tips at all?

 

Thanks!

Pretty unlikely you'll be able to replace the backlight and the display not looking worse than it does now, but replacing the panel should be easy. If you can't find what panel it is just take it apart and look for yourself.
