Trader:
You can replace the "Alligator test lead case" with a real 4 wire leads.

thanks Hydrons, yes, they seem to be split banana jack (very expensive, though)

adriten:
yes but you either buy a second TL-21 (expensive) or you have to hack the one that comes with the instrument (a bit crappy but I'd prefer to leave it untouched)
JDW:
You can buy gold-plated Kelvin clips on Amazon (USA) for a very reasonable price right now:

It really won't hurt removing the stock alligator clips because if for some reason you ever wanted them back, you simply need to solder. Desoldering a later desoldering (at up to 350°C with 3s or less on each wire) won't harm the original leads.
With that said, I've yet to do that mod on my kit yet because I'm not sure if the relatively large size of those handles would be too big in some applications where the smaller and lighter weight stock alligator clips might be better suited.
I have watched many YouTube videos on the subject though. It seems that the biggest reason for doing the Kelvin Clip mod is to get longer leads and a different shaped clip end. According to this video, there isn't much of an accuracy difference between calibrated Kelvin Clips and the stock alligator clips for resistance measurements above 10mΩ.
