This is some serious fabrication. Are you an engineer? Maybe you are an underwater welder by trade. Just a few guesses bc this is way beyond the scope of pretty much anyone on this forum on the difficulty scale.

Georgia is the opposite. When in a vehicle the firearm must be displayed in plain sight at all times.
Mine stays comfortably on my side while driving 90% of the time but I have a OWB holster that sits really high on my belt.
Easy enough - got any thin sheet aluminum?
- Remove plastic panel.
- Decide where you want sheath.
- Slit the panel on either side of the belt loop on the sheath, wide enough to pass the aluminum
- Thread the aluminum through the panel and the belt loop on the sheath. Allow min. 2" to either side behind the panel of metal length.
- Cement the metal strip to the inside of the panel (optional)
- Replace the panel.
I say cementing the strip is optional, because it looks as if the steel fill panel should prevent gross deformation of the panel. Make the strip about as wide as the belt loop, and the sheath should not move much. Use min. 0.060" thick aluminum strip.
