Agree with all of the above posters. Make sure it is AS1, and ask them to watermark it in case you ever have to go for a safety inspection.

I installed dozens and dozens and dozens of these windows back in the day. Do not use screwdrivers to work them in to the gaskets. We had a trick of using paracord inside the rubber gasket. Someone would hold the glass close to the gasket with the bottom already in. As you pulled the string, it would envelope the glass. If you were lucky, you would get the whole thing in one shot. If not so lucky, you finish by working the rubber with a nylon stick. A piece of that white breadboard works fine, ground to a rough point. Or we used to use the runner material off the 200 pound toboggans, again cut to length and roughly sharpened.
