I think you can just copy the axes_grid.inset_locator.py file and use

Hi JJ,
I'm not sure I understand how to properly set the axe_locator. Below
is my snippet of code that I use to create my contourf plot and then
create the colorbar. I'm unsure how I would modify it to do as you
suggested. Any help would be appreciated.
plot = ax.contourf(xc, yc, data,
What you need is to adjust the axes position of the colorbar at the
drawing time (because the axes position of the contour plot is
adjusted only during the drawing time).
You may do this by properly setting the axe_locator property of the axes.
If you're using mpl 0.99, axes_grid toolkit may be he
