I don't know of any specifically for C3's, but I also went with Sparco's like groovyjay. I had to modify the pedals to make them work. Since I was already modifying the auto brake pedal anyway to make it work with the manual clutch pedal, it really didn't bother me to cut on the original pedals. The Sparco's bolted on, so you have to drill thru the pedals and trim the originals to fit. Sparco even sent a preferred spacing diagram with the pedals on how they should be correctly spaced for best performance.

I would be very interested in seeing pics of your new pedals. How much did they charge to add "stingray" to them?
