Default Faded rear seats...How to fix/replace?

Ok so I am one of the many with faded rear upper seat cushins in my 4th gen (California sun)...I want to get that OEM look restored but what is the most cost efficient way of doing this??...I want OEM quality as well without having to buy new seats from the dealer...Should I go to an upholstery shop and tell them I want to "restore" my seats? And how much should I expect to pay?
If you have done this please share your experience and any tips you might have...
And no I will not gut the back I want to keep full interior..I just want it to look clean...thanks for any help/input...

I dont want to use dye because i heard its hard to color match and it can smell bad....basically i need to know if an upholstery shop can "match" the OEM material and color??? Has anyone had their rear seats re-upholstered because of fading or rips???

IVE BEEN CHECKING FOR OVER 1 YEAR!!! Lol sry caps.....But seriously its impossible to find good OEM ones...Mine are in perfect shape (no rips or stains what soever) like no one has ever sat back there....I think gettin them re-upholstered it the best bet but im concerned about how they will come out and the cost...There has to be someone who had them re-upholstered ...
