Former SA sleeve diamond correct?

Does anyone know whether the sleeve diamond for SA who joined the SS, sold by Trident, is correct? I see another online which is quite different. Are these legitimate variations of the same diamond?

Raute with SA emblem, was worn by former SA personnel who have volunteered for service with the Totenkopfverbände.
The second it's right.

It looks to be taken from the collar tab design of the 'Horst Wessel' Division.
