What did they say to you? They won't take it back because it was "used"? The return policy does not have any details onsite. I'd put comments in their feedback if they continue to be unresponsive, sometimes that jolts the seller into the proper action.
If no resolution, PM me, I'd be glad to take 'em off your hands.

I just swapped with my mate as ones I had were perfect for him.
I'm trying these out tonight.

I got my other LEDS in. I'm short one for map lights, I bought 4 instead of 5. I'm going to replace lights that come on when you open door and order another. So I'll do the actual reading lights in rear next week. I also got my license plate lights too.
Standby for more photos.

Alright, more updates.
As of right now everything looks great--grant it the sun it out so it could be deceiving. I am waiting until night far to test for sure. So far, the interior, reverse LED's I swapped with my buddy, and license plate LED's all look AMAZING!
I broke one LED and am short one LED for the rear seat map lights. The middle bulb was a PITA to get in; it was super tight which caused me to break the first LED. Actually, my dumb self didn't realize you can put the LED on it but not push in to test polarity--I got LED in and it didn't come on (was backwards), tried to take it out and because it's such a tight fit I basically ripped the LED off the base LOL.
Here photos, I am now going to think about the front signal and marker bulb--I really would like to go LED but I hear from lights are a PITA.
On to the PHOTONS!
Reverse Bulbs; got these from my mate--not sure where he got them.
Map lights and License Plate lights;
Front Map Lights; I had to take the reflector out to get the bulb--they were TIGHT.
License Plate Lights; love it!
Reverse Lights; before and after shots.

Of course it does, I did it.

I've decided I'm not painting my chrome; I like the luxurious class it spouts off because you catch the aggressive stance!

Very; I hate yellow bulbs that are supposed to be white!
I got 2 more LED's coming in for back maps and I'm done.
I want to do from turn signal and marker bulb but I'm being told it's a PITA to do.

Where is the reverse lights on your car? Trunk lid or body?

You should be fine then.
The 13 has their reverse lights on trunk lid which means the bulb goes in at like a 60 degree angle to the housing.
If yours goes in with bulb facing straight back towards back of car you good.

I tested last night how the LEDs worked.
Reverse LEDs that I swapped with my mate are useless; they do give me a white light and they do fill the entire reflector better than the other CREE's I had, but they don't actually "project" any light--so backing up they are useless.
I found these two on ebay; not sure which one I will go with.
Rated @ 490 lumens; http://goo.gl/3cIj0j
Rated @ 500 lumens; http://goo.gl/uT6HSV
The first one may work better for my reflectors since it has so many LED's all over whereas the second one seems to have like (2) HP LEDs on each plane.
Interior LEDS
The ones I got work GREAT! Even with two back map lights still stock, the LED's overpowered the interior and make it bright white. I love it; no more "yellow" look in my car.
Even license plate looked amazing.

OK, I just ordered these LED's for my vanity lights after pulling out the factory one. They look like fuses actually.
https://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/led-vehicle-replacement-bulbs/fuse-led-bulb-1-smd-led-festoon/243/1162/
So I have (2) more map light LED's coming and (4) vanity light LED's; that will complete my interior.
I also ordered this for my reverse lamp;
