You can put Hyper-Lites (LED modules with flasher) in the extra pods. You can see the installation and a demonstration [http://www.obairlann.net/~reaper/motorcycle/ninja/hyperlites/ here]. They're very effective, plus they give you extra running and brake lights if your incandescent center bulb goes bye-bye. $80 or so shipped. Get the generic dual-function model (for running and brake lights) [http://www.hyperlites.com/unikits.html from this page]. They may not be as easy to install as the Kisan, but they're cheaper and provide a number of additional benefits.
For installation in the two spare pods, it's recommended to undo the two bolts holding the rear taillight on the bike, and install the Hyper-Lites with the light assembly off the bike. It's a very clean installation; you can hardly tell it's there until the extra lights come on.
