this whole homologation thing is just a money making machine for the fia and the manufacturers.
in pretty much every other racing series the organizer just writes the general rules, and competitors have to make sure their car applies to them.
but in rally, the opposite is true. parts have to be homologated, even though no special rules apply to them.
in the case of windows, the only rule should be a full filling of the chassis holes, a certain material and some specific thickness. shape of weight are not specified, so they should never cause a penalty.
Or they get a waiver......
