I suggest superglue and razor's. Superglue a f-n nightmare of straight razor's underneath the seats. Just think, they've done this before so their prolly pretty good at it, and prolly wont even use lights. I've seen a guy with a Jeep do this to his head unit and he said there was blood all over his interior the next time they came around. Pretty fun, and you'll feel good about it. You could even call the cops and have them scope out the local ER's for cut wounds to hands. 
And when you sell the car just use plier's to remove all of them.

Sorry about being victimized. No matter the circumstance, you have no control over someone else's criminal mind. Meanwhile, I would be busy setting up some type of trap for them. I would ambush their azzes with no mercy. Good luck this time around.

To the OP, very sorry to hear about this - some people are just scumbags, and I honestly believe they'll eventually get what's coming to them. It's a shame you have to accommodate your car ownership because someone else can't just go get a job.
Yeah, apparently they do and they're a hot property - I remember the first time I read about seat locks and the _reason_ you need them I was floored.
It's one reason I chose not to use my CS Carbon Mirrors - I figured they're easily accessible and usable on other cars, so why have something that's a theft lure.

The sh!tstorm has settled a bit, but just to reiterate for the OP, he is NOT at fault for having his seats stolen.
The THEIF is!!!
I truly don't understand how we as a society have arrived at a place where it is the owner's fault that something is stolen
My sincere condolences to the OP. Honestly, it sounds like your best bet is to just turn the car in early on the lease. Perhaps explain it to your insurance company and see if there is some way they and the dealership can work out a way to perhaps even credit you for the rental expenditure you would have needed to absorb had you had the car repaired and then returned it. It's clear that, barring extreme measures on your part, this is simply going to happen again.
Alternatively, you might discuss this with your local police department to have them use your car as a bait car and catch these guys finally. Three counts of vandalism and felony theft should be enough to get the local DA interested in things...
