Question Inside round rubber Door and window handle grommets?

I have a 72' GMC and between the inside of the door panel and the door there are two round rubber grommets about the size of a golf ball that go on the inside door handle crank and the other is on the window crank and they are different size. Which one goes on the window crank and which on the door handle crank? Thank you.

The thicker one goes onto the window crank and the thinner one goes onto the door handle.

There called Escutcheon's. They also come in different colors to match your interior. Vendors such as GMC Paul, Athey's or Wes at Classic Heartbeat should carry these parts

Thanks mate, but the ones that the poster is talking about, I think? and that I need is the sponge spacers or cusions between the backside of the door panel and the inside of the door...in other words when the door panel is removed they fit over the handle and winder mechanisms.
