Buy the black halfords pedals that are in the dx style. They are around £13 and are a straight swap.
Take yours out and measure them. Sketch a pic of the shape and the measurements. Then we can have a look for spindles that are similar.
You can also buy inserts for cranks that convert 9 1/6" to 1/2" But I have never used them.
I found some ages ago on a web site. Fook knows where. I will have a search.

I was thinking of making some you see For Perry's they'll work - you do need to trim off (with a Dremel) the last three threads on the new axles to get them to fit though. Done it a load of times
