Default Window Regulator Roller - Rivet How To's?

I am rebuilding the side window regulators and need to replace a few rollers. I got the rollers but haven't been able to find a tool to pean the rivets over. Does any one know when I can find the proper tool to crimp these? I saw that ZIP had a punch set for small rivets but it is too small for the window roller (works for the heater box size).

Thanks!

Sorry, I ment my rollers were delivered. I honestly figure I'll just use a vice to hold a small bolt to set the roller head against and stake the other end with a center punch. It looks like that thin aluminum will mushroom pretty easily.
