Rear window replacement rollers ?

Will the Dorman (#74430) rollers work? or the ones from LMC a better choice? Are there any other options out there?

I haven't tried either, but without talking to someone who knew better I'd lean toward dorman.

Thanks for your response , I ordered a set(Dorman) to try, I guess no one else has repaired their back window?

I had to change the whole Register because the rollers wore groves in the bottom track and the window would hang up. Maybe I can get the track welded up and replace the flat rollers for the next time.

Well the Dorman rollers were too large. So I went to the dealership and got GM part #'s . Did an online search and found them fairly inexpensive, shipping was more than the parts. If anyone is interested here's the part #'s. Rollers # 4158245 , Rivet # 12338147 .

I used a hex bolt and stop nut. It worked great. Pics linked below.
I added the black plastic washers to eliminate rattling.
