1. An attachment element for a lock for connecting a locking bar with an actuation lever of a motor vehicle lock, wherein the attachment element comprises one part, the one part including a C-shaped base and two limbs, and wherein the C-shaped base comprises a hinge and the two limbs are connected with each other via the hinge so that they can be connected positively and/or frictionally with an opening of the actuation lever, wherein each limb has an inside locking element that extends from an end of the limb toward the C-shaped base, which forms a locked connection in conjunction with the opening in the actuation lever,wherein the two limbs are moveable into an overlapping position by a movement of the hinge, and in the overlapping position the two limbs form a cone-shaped end that tapers in a direction going away from the C-shaped base, andwherein each inside locking element extends in a longitudinal direction from a lower surface of the cone-shaped end toward the C-shaped base, and each inside locking element is spaced apart from each respective limb. 2. The attachment element according to claim 1, wherein the limbs of the attachment element are connected with each other elastically. 3. The attachment element according to claim 1, wherein the limbs spread from the C-shaped base in a V-shape in a non-compressed condition. 4. The attachment element according to claim 1, wherein the limbs in stressed, compressed condition are locked specifically by means of a recess formed in end of one limb and a complementary raised area in the end of the other limb. 5. The attachment element according to claim 1, wherein in the overlapping position the locking elements are arranged to face each other in this overlapping position. 6. The attachment element according to claim 5, wherein, in the overlapping position, free ends of the two locking elements are moved towards each other against an elastic force. 7. The attachment element according to claim 1, wherein each end of the inside locking elements is ramp-shaped in a direction extending from the end of a respective limb toward the C-shaped base. 8. The attachment element according to claim 1, wherein each end of the inside locking elements has an L-shaped contour. 9. The attachment element according to claim 1, wherein, at each end of a limb, the locking element is attached by means of a web that extends parallel to the associated limb in the direction of the C-shaped base. 10. The attachment element according to claim 1, wherein the C-shaped base is a guide for connecting to the locking bar. 11. The attachment element according to claim 1, wherein the attachment element is made of an elastic plastic material. 12. A lock for a motor vehicle comprising a bar and an actuation lever as well as the attachment element according to claim 1 that connects the bar with the actuation lever, where the C-shaped base of the attachment element encloses the bar, and where the two limbs of the attachment element reach through the opening in the actuation lever and are positively and/or frictionally connected with the opening. 13. An attachment element for connecting a locking bar with an actuation lever of a motor vehicle lock, the attachment element consisting of one part that has a C-shaped base and having limbs that are connected with each other by a hinge connection so that the limbs can be positioned around the locking bar and urged together to clamp the locking bar therebetween, and the limbs having end portions that interengage with one another to form a peg having a tapered end portion to facilitate insertion of the peg into an aperture of the actuation lever, and wherein at least one of the end portions has a resiliently deflectable locking element that can deflect inwardly to permit passage of the peg through the aperture at a front side of the actuation lever and then spring back to engage a back side of the actuation lever, and wherein each limb has an inside locking element that extends from an end of the limb toward the C-shaped base, which forms a locked connection in conjunction with the aperture of the actuation lever, andwherein the peg comprises a cone-shaped end that tapers in a direction going away from the C-shaped base, andwherein each inside locking element extends in a longitudinal direction from a lower surface of the cone-shaped end toward the C-shaped base, and each inside locking element is spaced apart from each respective limb. 14. The attachment element of claim 13, wherein each limb includes a respective said locking element, and the limbs have an interior recess for accommodating inward deflection of the locking element. 15. The attachment element of claim 13, wherein the locking element extends in a direction parallel to a center axis of the peg. 16. The attachment element according to claim 13, wherein the limbs spread from the C-shaped base in a V-shape in a non-compressed condition.
