Default window motor-- which rivets?

I'm replacing my window motor this weekend and am going to re-rivet it back in (don't want to go the bolt/nut/lock tite route... car vibrates too much don't want it coming lose)

Anyone know what size they are? (3/16" or 1/4")

Also does anyone know if I can just get these from Sears hardware or do I have to get them from GM?

Thanks
