It's not that bad actually, we did the windows on our duplex last year. They had the vinyl slider kinds, so we just measured the openings, ordered custom made vinyl inserts, and then slid them in after removing the vinyl sliders. No fuss, no cutting. Each window took maybe 30 minutes to do, including a bit of caulking to cover any gaps and the expanding foam. We went back later and did some wood trim to cover the gap from the outside (the openings were wider at the outside than the inside).

Each window was pretty normal sized, 40" x 60" or so, and each one cost less than $250 from Lux.

Made a pretty huge difference.
