Installing road pedals into my stationary bike?

I just bought a Reebok stationary bike and I want to put my click in pedals on the bike so I can wear my cycling shoes when I work out on it. (The pedals on the stationary bike are really crappy)

However, the pedal threads on the stationary bike are smaller than those for my road bike. My road bike pedals wont fit into my stationary bike because the threads are too big.

Is there anything I can do? The arms that the pedals screw into (not sure what they are called) do not come off the stationary bike so I can't replace them with ones with larger thread holes.

Please Help.

Only two options really, put up with the crappy ones or. . . .

Drill and Tap the crank arms to fit road pedals, as an engineer, it's a job I could do in about 40 mins.
