A couple of suggestions that I hope will save you a lot of future pain:

1) If it ain't broke, don't fix it. More often than not you'll end up breaking something in the process that does require repairing, especially on these cars. Unless you have some noise, free play, or grinding coming from the pulleys I wouldn't start taking them off and trying to replace them.

2) Instead of asking how many rollers and pulleys there are on different models, go out and look at your car and count them up. I wouldn't start ordering parts until you can look at a diagram and match them up with your car so ensure you get the parts you need. Listening to second hand sources can be easier, but it's a lot less reliable than confirming things for yourself. If you end up with the wrong parts there's only one person to blame...
