When you say there's an additional small intake that 'takes air from the bulkhead', do you mean from the fenderwell?

Interesting that the factory orange filter looks almost the same as the new filter.... Wonder if it would be a straight drop-in replacement?
You can see it in the picture that the lid now extends to the corner where there is a small hole which leads to the area where below the wipers are.

Yes it's a straight swap as the original airbox is retained, at least on the 130i that I have. I believe the 128i air box is a little different so I would check yours first.
