Claim 9:
10. An apparatus, comprising:
an assembly carrier for a front-end structure arrangement of a motor vehicle bodyshell, wherein the assembly carrier is configured for arrangement in a free space between a first longitudinal member and a second longitudinal member of a front-end structure, wherein the first longitudinal member and the second longitudinal member run in a longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle, and wherein the first longitudinal member and the second longitudinal member are connected to one another at a respective front end at least indirectly via a cross-member;
fastening elements for securing the assembly carrier to the motor vehicle bodyshell;
a first side region and a second side region of the assembly carrier, wherein, in an installed state of the assembly carrier in the front-end structure arrangement of the motor vehicle bodyshell, the first side region runs laterally along the first longitudinal member to form a first gap between the assembly carrier and the first longitudinal member and the second side region runs laterally along the second longitudinal member to form a second gap between the assembly carrier and the second longitudinal member; and
a protective device with a supporting element, wherein the supporting element, in the installed state of the assembly carrier, is disposed in the first gap and extends with a longest dimension parallel to the first longitudinal member such that the first gap between the assembly carrier and the first longitudinal member is reduced.
