Others have reported that the square and notch popouts are VERY hard to 
reinstall once you put on new rubbers. There's probably a trick to this, but 
I've never had to do it. The plastic sleeves keep the "hinges" from rattling 
and keep them in alignment. I can make some cheap sleeves to replace them; they 
are not as good, but they are the only thing available. Unfortunately, they 
will make the window even harder to install.
