make vlc plugin default player for youtube videos

That is not possible. You can only use the video player that YouTube offers and that can be a Flash based player or an HTML5 media player, but not a plugin like VLC.
You can use an extension to switch between the Flash player and the HTML5 media player on the YouTube website.
