Lease maturing options

I have 2014 Jetta GLI Autobahn DSG. I leased it for 3 years, 15k / year for $361 / month. I have only 25k miles and it matures at the end of the month. I can buy the car for around $15k.
My question is how do I get any credit for the 20k miles that I paid for but didn't use? How would you approach a dealer with this?

The one thing you could do is trade the vehicle. With the low mileage, it is possible the trade value is higher than the residual value.
You could also sell the vehicle yourself.
In either case, the vehicle would need to be purchased from the leasing company for the $15K.

Someone can check the auction reports, and see where you are.
