Is lumbar support on a 99 E300 standard or optional? I have the heated seats but can't seem to find where the lumbar support lever is located. My understanding is that it is manual and not automatic. Can someone please confirm? Thanks!

I have the 2001 E320/E430/E55 sales literature. In that year, the E55 had multi-contour seats (is that what you meant by lumbar support?) as standard equipment and it was an option on the E320/E430. On cars so equipped, you can see a dial on the bottom left of the driver's seat. I thought those had more to do with lateral support, and I don't know about the lumbar region.

I think the "lumbard support" is pretty loose definition. I had it on Volvo over 20 years ago, what was steel bar pushed more or less between your ribs. OK maybe with soft padding but still. Our 2005 model has big level on the side, that do something I didn't really check. Better known are "dynamic seats" that looks like fancy gadgets, but had no opportunity to try one.
Our 97 and 98 models don't have anything like that.
