this is exactly what I worked out ;)
I create the first colorbar and save the axis object it plots itself in:

        self.colorbar = self.ui.widget.canvas.fig.colorbar(plt, ax = 
self.ui.widget.canvas.ax.get_axes())

Then I plot each new colorbar into that axes object by specifying the 
cax keyword via
        self.ui.widget.canvas.fig.colorbar(plt, cax = self.colorbar.ax)

Thank you for your help.
Cheers, Ralph
