Now, I'm aware that I don't see any movement on the passenger side.
As the original poster -- almost exactly nine years ago! -- I think what you are seeing is perfectly normal. The diagram above is very instructive.

It's a like a feature "Q" might have added to a vehicle he was giving James Bond for his next assignment.

Can adaptive headlights be retro fitted to a 2003 SC430? We love them on our RX.
