Larry,

That would work great if I needed to reach things in the front or rear.
Where I really need to reach is above the sliding door area. The cartop
carrier is mounted on a rack attached to the poptop, and the latches are on
the side above the slider door.

Karl, the Vanagon comes with a built in "ladder".
Assuming that you have a metal bumper, attach a nonskid adhesive strip to
the
top of the bumper. Step up onto the bumper strip and you are there.
Larry
PS. Rolls of this nonskid stuff are available at "Camping World".
