Hello, I seem to have an issue with looking for and finding the plastic rollers for the front windows as mine have too much slop in them to accurately adjust the windows. Could anyone link a set of rollers that they've used themselves? Most of what I see are the dorman help style for the REAR 1/4 windows which I already did.

I ended up making my own rollers with a piece of nylon stock and replicated the skape, including the hollowing out of the hole to press in the locating ball.

G'day Kristof,

Attached are some pictures from my spare regulator but surely there would be cheaper sources in USA.

Is this what you are looking for?

Found these on eBay   125848302335?
