Those things at the top? Most of the times they have a R and a L on it. Facing the front of the drive put the L on on your left and the R one on your right. DVD drives generally have several screw holes where you can put the, just play around with it.
When you slide it in they should click and lock. It's normal to be sticking out if the front of the case is removed, once you add the front panel back it should line up nicely.
Yeh the sticks at the top. These ones don't have L or R on it.
The reason it won't work with it sticking out is because the front of the case has some flaps and a button. The button is like an extender for the actual DVD drive button and the flap comes down when the tray pops out.
This pic shows the drive bays on the front.
