CowGuy27? That sounds like a bad chat name!
Welcome to Pro/Cooling!
The rubber is needed to finish the steel edge nicely. Actually, it's a quick and dirty fix, because making a nice finished steel edge takes time.
The rivet idea is kinda neat. It's probably best to practice some, to get the hang of it, and see what the result is. There will be rivets all around the window.
Alternatively, if you do take the time to finish the steel edge nicely, you could simply use a silicone glue (Goop) to stick the window to the inside of the case panel.
Let us know how it turns out (and we want pics!)
