Abstract

An arrangement for fastening first and second components with automatic compensation in spacing between the components has a base element with first and second axial ends and a holding structure for holding the base element in an opening of the first component. An adjusting unit screwable into the base element has a driver unit. A fastening screw is connectable to the adjusting unit via the driver unit, such that, when the fastening screw is rotated, the adjusting unit can be rotated conjointly and moved into contact with the second component. The holding structure has a holding segment arranged such that, by the holding segment, an angle between the first and second component can be compensated such that, when the adjusting unit makes contact with the second component, a longitudinal axis of the fastening arrangement runs perpendicular to a plane of the second component.
