1. Put on safety glasses and pry window and trim pieces away from window frame (figure A).

2. Mark the plywood for cuts to give you the relief large enough to fit the window so it rests against the inner frame. Use a combination square to mark the cuts (figure B).

3. Make a notch with a chisel so you can get started, then saw away a relief using a pull saw (figure C).

5. Drill pilot holes for the clips and attach to the frame with screws. Put the window back in place and bend the clips over with pliers (figure E).

6. Secure the clips to the window using screws (figure F). Use an awl to make holes in the window frame to get the screws started.

7. Reinstall the trim pieces.
