Being Ripped off by ModBargains help me out!

Long story coming up, basically I bought these tail lights http://www.modbargains.com/helix-dep...ght-frs-sc.htm
And nothing met its description. I have videos and receipts.
After all of my time and money, all I've been offered is store credit which is unacceptable.

1) description said plug and play for years '13+, when I tried to plug it in it didn't fit, causing me to need to take it to a professional and spend $80 getting them on because it said "plug and play" yet the professional had to move a harness to get the tail light on.

2)Description said no hyper flashing yet there was, and on top of that my night lights were used when I hit a turn signal, my turn signal would come on when I tried turning on my night lights, and I had to night lights in general since there was no way to get them on. They claim that this was due to the lights being JDM and said that they needed a repin to USDM.

3)NOWHERE on the item desc did it state "plug and play" unless your car is '16. And NOWHERE did it state that the lights where JDM, causing somebody like me to find out after installation, they made it sound like that's common knowledge, it clearly is not. I could have boughten them on Amazon a lot cheaper but they STATED that they were JDM and would need a repin. I assumed they were USDM when I bought them because nowhere in the desc did it say a repin would be required.

4) Now that I've wasted $80 and a total of 2 hours in my garage before giving up because the light wouldn't fit and 4 hours at Currys Auto. I need to put the stock tail lights back on. So now I'm out another 2 hours and $45. Bringing us a grand total of 8 hours of my life gone and $125 down the drain.
