It just makes it so the front lights look cleaner. Instead of the glare of amber, it looks all white. All cosmetic.

Front indicators in W212 with P2 are LED. So the chrome bulb will work only to W212 with P1.

It would be nice if the P2 LED's weren't all amber. In certain lights you get a strong amber glare.

I believe the 'Blend In' applies only when the indicator is NOT turned on. Not sure if it makes any difference when the indicator is turned on. If you have LED then it may already have a 'Blend In' look. (I could be wrong).

Unfortunately you are wrong. Actually, I almost feel as if the LED turn signals have an even stronger orange glare, as if you look closely inside that "frosty" portion of the lens, there are a lot of little amber LED's, thus probably giving off more of an amber glare than a P1 would with a simple little orange bulb behind that chrome cover.
