 Jess, that is not my recommendation. Use the belt buckle to hold the light in 
place - this way, if you need to remove it for some reason, you can do so quite 
easily. Do not put weight belt stops, d-rings, or anything else in the way. If 
You must, use a free belt buckle, which can also be undone easily.

 Clearly , to do this, your left hand side of the waist strap must extend all 
the way around to the position of the light. Remember, the knife is on the left 
part of the belt, and the crotch strap slides over this portion as well, and 
both serve to hold the tail end of the right side neatly in place.

  Shift you harness webbing if you need to , and burn a new hole a the 
backplate. Anytime you can use one piece of gear to do many things, or one 
solution to many problems , go with it. 

   Like you said, the movement of the light causes the sensation of unbalance.
