Surprised that reupholstering is not cheaper than buying new. If the price is close though, you can get exactly what you want. Never notices the "bones" in the seat just the padding etc. New seats with the features you now have are very pricy. Are new seats able to use your existing pedestals and power system? I assume they can. I had a problem with the seats having integrated seat belts with the shoulder belts coming out of a slot in the seat back. New rig has belts mounted to the sidewall. Pros and cons.
