For broken(leaky) Japanese screens - only YT video I found (with any relevance to a fix, it is for a mac but applies for old made in japan laptop screens).

That's probably not going to help for the gas plasma screens on the T5200 though since they don't use polarisers. Adrian's Digital Basement looked at a Samsung clone of one recently and poked around in the LCD: https://youtu.be/iqELLO1OsJY?t=3712

I'm currently in polariser replacement hell trying to fix my T2450CT 🙁 Looks like he did a great job on replacing that front polariser sheet.
