Sure thing, we can replace this! It has to be a special order, though. I'll email you an order link and price quote for 2 right now. Let me know if you have any questions about it.
As for the tilt out keepers, I'm not sure what you mean. We may not have the style you're looking for. Do you have one we can see a picture of, perhaps from another window?

Tom, these at the tilt out "keeper" pieces used to hold the channel balance in place in the frame so you can slide the window down from the top over the balance then push the keeper back in flush so the window can slide up and down.

Ah, I feared as much. I was hoping this wasn't it.
I recognize this take out clip. We've tried forever to get a replacement, but I just don't think they're made anymore. I'm afraid nothing we carry can replace it, either. Believe me, we've tried. I think your only hope would be to try to find a local mom and pop type store who may have older stock lying around. If you're lucky they may have a box of these forgotten somewhere in the back of their stock room. I'm very sorry we cannot offer you a replacement for this part.
