1. An apparatus for fastening a vehicle component in and/or on a vehicle, having a sound insulation element wherein the sound insulation element comprises a carrier layer, which has a plastic material, with a first side and a second side remote therefrom and a sound absorbing layer, which is formed on the second side of the carrier layer, of likewise a plastic material or of synthetic fibre or natural fibre material, wherein an anchoring recess is formed in the carrier layer, which anchoring recess has an insertion opening in the first side of the carrier layer, which insertion opening is adjoined by a receiving space delimited by the plastic material of the carrier layer, which receiving space is defined by a closed circumferential inner side and a closed bottom surface, and an anchoring element for receiving in the anchoring recess, wherein the anchoring element is formed in one piece with a component to be fastened to the carrier layer of the sound insulation element or is formed in one piece with a holding element to which the component to be fastened to the carrier layer of the sound insulation element can be attached, or can be guided through a through-opening formed in the component to be fastened to the carrier layer of the sound insulation element, wherein the anchoring recess has a receiving space formed on the circumferential inner side, which at least partially narrows the receiving space and has a widened widening area adjoining it in the direction of the bottom surface and/or wherein the anchoring element has an anchoring shoulder for engaging behind the constriction area when the anchoring element is received by the anchoring recess,
wherein a positioning element is provided, which is constructed in one piece with the component to be fastened to the carrier layer of the sound insulation element or in one piece with a holding element, to which the component to be fastened to the carrier layer of the sound insulation element can be attached.
