Hello all,

This post is a long shot, but I was wondering if anyone has any experience or knowledge of a way to replace the Paperwhite 2 light guide. I was putting away dishes while reading the other day and one fell smack dab in the middle of my screen from about 3 feet or so above it. Didn't scratch the front plastic, didn't crack the screen. But it did crack the light guide. So now I have one spot that is a bright little line that casts 4-5 shadows (one from each LED).
