I did mine very easy. Take glass out, remove cross bar and prey top and bottom out. side piece pry from middle. new window just put in from outside the sheetrock will stop it in place just screw it in.
I might of did the side pieces first pry in the middle. Its been a while . But very easy. Windows are stander sizes they do not need to be special made. Just score the fins at bottom and break them off.
I bought mine for General window. They gone down hill since then.(Bought out)but you can get them anywhere.

I was having trouble with this last time. When demoing the old window, couldn't get the fin out. So score in with utility knives and then break?

Do I need an aluminum brake to put in the proper flashing around the siding? Or is flashing even needed?
