To install the Rightline Sport Jr. Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100S50 on your 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan with sliding doors you would need the Car Clips for Rightline Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100600.

These clips will clip on the door frame of your Grand Caravan and would not interfere with your sliding door.

I also recommend a protective pad, # RL100650, to protect the roof when using the bag.
