So far as I know, only Europe got tilting beams.

This photo from my locker shows the motor:

A square thing on the right, with four wires visible, green, red , yellow and white.
The gray bit with the bolt facing up is the beam set adjuster screw. The adjuster switch on the console can then drop the beam down from this level if the car is loaded heavily at the back.

Between the weight of the stepper motor, and the weight of the glass lens, these are a lot heavier than the perspex ones. Each weighs about 3.5 kgs.
