An insulating element for insulating a structural element in a motor vehicle, the insulating element comprising:
- at least two mutually connected modules, wherein:
- the modules are essentially identical,
- the modules each have a first coupling element and a second coupling element,
- adjacent modules are connected to one another via the first coupling element and the second coupling element,
- at least one of the following conditions is fulfilled:
- (i) the modules are connected to one another via the first coupling element and the second coupling element such that the modules cannot be moved relative to one another, or
- (ii) the first coupling element and the second coupling element take the form of plug connections or snap-fitting securing clips, and
- a module has a carrier and an expandable material arranged on the carrier;
- and
- at least one fixing element for fixing the insulating element on the structural element, wherein the fixing element is connected to at least one module.
