I got vinyl samples from the place you recommended. They had 2 'light parchment'. Both are called 'G' grain.
The Revolution brand one is probably closest in color., kind of feels like soft leather, but very flat/ no sheen. Not looking for much gloss, but what could I use on it to bring it up a little that will stay on, not be slippery...
The other is a little lighter than original an does have some shine, but is more of a plastic feel surface. It is a heavier material.

I'd have to see the material to give you the best way to shine it up a bit, but there are lots of ways to do it that won't be slippery. There are vinyl and leather dressings, clear dressings (kind of like clear shoe polish) and of course mechanical polishing (not hard to do).

The first sample sounds like the stuff they use on newer cars for the side panels on real leather seats like my SRT has on the side panels. In general, it's not as durable as the stuff you described the second sample being like but more comfortable to sit on.
