Pwr window fix, cleaning up the tracks.

I tried this on the body/interior board too, just thought I'd have more luck asking here also.

I've completely taken out everything associated with the window, and am trying to clean things up. I've noticed that the plastic round things that go in the tracks don't spin very easly on a couple. One moves very easily, so I know there is a problem. What can be done to fix this. I assume its just old-old-old grease that is causing it, but how can I get it all out of the little space?

Don't try to get it all out of the space, just put more in there and it will free itself.

Most the time I use a spray penetrant to free the rollers.

I just noticed that the rollers can be pry'd off. I gave it a good cleaning, and lube, but the rollers still don't roll as easily as the one I've mentioned before. Can these rollers be replaced?
