Yeah, that's the part that made me think maybe that whole subassembly can pivot. The OP said something about the fog lamps being blocked out, which means presumably the LED cornering lamps in that same housing were, too--that would be consistent with testing new lamps that swiveled based on steering angle.
That said, in other implementations of this tech (like on my Golf), the actual moving parts are pretty unobtrusive, so maybe this is just an engineering mule.
