Update:

The replacement rollers from our host came in, and they measure .949 -.950 . They slide into the channel, but are very tight, and doubt it will actually 'roll'.

So they are not 15/16".

I was looking at the rollers on that link VCho455 provided, and those rollers are listed as 11/16" OD, or .687 . Wondering if those would work, yes, smaller, but weight of the glass will keep the roller at the bottom of the channel, just need to be sure it won't actually hop out of the channel.

Just to make sure it's not some anomaly with the channels I have, I ordered some used ones to compare. I doubt they are different, because the ones as I mentioned before I know are born to this car OE, and the NOS regulator fit just fine. But still figured I'd take a shot at it, since they were fairly inexpensive.

Still on the wall of where to go with this, hoping others may chime in. I can't be the only person that's ever run across this...
