A peripheral wall of the sleeve delimits an inner space for receiving a bearing journal of a component. The sleeve includes at least a first, inner catch element securing the bearing journal in the sleeve and a second, outer catch element securing the sleeve in the recess of the carrier device. The second catch element is formed from a catch tongue which is a portion of the peripheral wall of the sleeve and which has a hooked portion for engagement in a catch receiving member of the recess of the carrier device.
