Since I didn't see a response to this: this sounds like a job for uaccess.
Most things that happened via the plugdev group (on Debian/derivatives)
5 or 10 years ago should happen via uaccess now.

TAG+="uaccess" in a udev rule results in an ACL being set so that
a currently-active logind session on the same seat can read and write
the device node.
