The present invention relates to an attachment mechanism, a gearshift lever housing, a force transmitting element, a shift device, and a method for attaching a shift device, which reduce a system noise that is transmitted from an engine compartment into a motor vehicle interior space. The attachment mechanism comprises an aperture for receiving the gearshift lever device, a bearing surface section at least partially encompassing the aperture, for bearing on a bearing element, a sealant receiver disposed in the bearing surface section, and a mount for supporting a section of a force transmitting device, by means of which the gearshift lever device can be connected to a motor vehicle transmission device in a shift-effecting manner, wherein the mount is disposed on a side of the bearing surface section facing away from the sealant receiver. The attachment mechanism is distinguished in that the sealant receiver is disposed such that it at least partially overlaps a support region delimited by the mount in terms of its cross section.
