It might have been TM Machine or possibly something with TD in the name. It was an EL type light, I imagine if you can't find one, you could follow one of the badge making threads and put a blue EL strip behind the logo.

A buddy of mine had one. I asked him where he got it but he could not remember. That was about 10 years ago.

You do realize that a blue light is probably illegal on a vehicle on any public road in your state....

In most areas, cops seem to have quit worrying about small blue LEDs but something as large as the FORD oval would probably still get their attention.

Usually if you don't look like a tuner *** they don't care. (you could also put it on a switch) "No officer, I don't see any light" lol

they were made by "lumi logo" but arent made anymore. they stopped making them because of the blue light issue someone mentioned. the company lumi logo still makes chevy and dodge light up logos but no more ford ones.. i really want one too. ive seen them once on ebay.

This is about all I could find.
Spent about 20 minutes of searching, this really was quite hard to find, and the website doesn't work, however there is a phone no# to the shop in AR, you might be able to call em and see if they still have this item in stock or can still get it. Other wise it would seem that you would have to make your own.
On that mark, AutoZone/Advance Auto sell an LED kit with just the small lights themselves, using that, a small drill bit and some glue it should be too hard at all to make one. However, driving the vehicle with a blue light on can and will get you into trouble with the law.(note this doesn't apply when the vehicle is parked)
Hope this helps and good luck!

I spoke with the sales folks at this company and they are gearing up to produce a new and improved version of these. They expect them to be available in 4-6wks.

They have a website up, but are not yet taking orders.

why bother putting up a site with links that don't go anywhere ??
take you to a different product and provide nothing in ant info ??
