It looks like you can just add something at the end of the navbar. Put in something like:

{vb:raw template_hook.your_name}

And then just render your template to that template hook:

PHP Code:

$newTemplate = vB_Template::create('someTemplate');
    $newTemplate->register('variable1', $variable1);
    $newTemplate->register('variable2', $variable2);
$template_hook['your_name'] = $newTemplate->render(); 


The best thing to do is go find a mod that does something similar and see how the developer did his/her mod.
