IANAL, but it seems to me that if a LEO orders you to do something illegal, then you should not be charged with that crime. Otherwise, we always have a very reasonable excuse for refusing to follow LEO orders that we think could possibly be illegal.

As I see it, if an officer orders you to leave your vehicle, that is a legal(lawful) order, not an illegal order in-itself.
Its the fact that YOU are carrying on your body and if you follow their lawful order you are then committing an illegal act.

I would find it much simpler to be able to comply with their lawful request, without having that worry, than have to explain "Im sorry Mr. Police officer, I have a gun in my pocket (or on my body in some holster (hopefully!)) and have them wonder (1) If they are an LTC, why didn't they give me their license or (2)If they dont have an LTC, I wonder why they are carrying on body....

and if you DO have it on your person (holster or pocket), remember you are ONLY legal to do so as long as you REMAIN in your car.
Lets say you get pulled over by the police.
They say "step out of the car"
As soon as you step out of the car, you are technically breaking the law.

So my suggestion is keep it in your vehicle - CONCEALED - but not on your person
