Abstract
In a method for connecting an attachment part to a structural part of a bodywork, a wall of the structural part is formed to at least partly encircle a region of the structural part. A form element is arranged to a main body of the attachment part. The attachment part is placed in the region of the structural part such that the form element touches the wall of the structural part, and the attachment part is pushed into the region, thereby causing the form element to move in relation to the main body of the attachment part until reaching an aperture in the wall of the structural part so that the form element moves into the aperture and is arranged therein to thereby position the attachment part in the region of the structural part.
