1. A vehicle lamp, comprising:
a substrate having a surface on which at least one light source is carried, the at least one light source configured to emit light away from the surface, the substrate having a first aperture;
a lens having a pivotal attachment to the surface of the substrate and defining a lamp chamber between the lens and the surface of the substrate;
an alignment portion integral with and extending from the lens parallel to the surface of the substrate, the alignment portion having a second aperture that aligns with the first aperture; and
an adjustment mechanism extending through the first aperture and the second apertures, the adjustment mechanism fixedly attached to the alignment portion and configured to adjust alignment of the lens with a single-point adjustment, wherein the adjustment mechanism has a threaded section and the first aperture in the substrate has counterpart threads, wherein rotation of the adjustment mechanism moves the lens about the pivotal attachment.
