IRP shifter store?

Hi,

I was looking at buying a IRP shifter but there is a German site and a site in Lithuania? Are they both the same? Don't want to go to a fake store or anything.

http://www.irp-germany.com/

and http://www.irp.lt/individual-racing-...hop/scion/frs/

thanks,

IIRC in IRP shifter thread someone mentioned that it's manufactured by parts shop in Lithuania, but sold/marketed by dealers in Germany. You can also always buy from some shop that has added it to inventory too, for extra ensurance. IIRC ft86sf now has it listed.
EDIT
Hmm, interesting. I wonder what are the differences between V2 & V3 listed on lithuanian site .. someone mentioned that rattling issues should be fixed soon? Though from only pics listed it seems just difference of reverse lockout type used.

One site is of the manufacturer and the other is of the distributor in Germany/Europe. There is no fake store, especially for an item that is only couple of hundred euros.
The difference between V2 and V3 is simply the reverse lockout system. V2 is pull lever type the other is push down button. They have worked on a solution regarding the rattling issue, however as some mentioned some have it some don't. It is good that they have taken the time to sort this issue out.
