I found that the best way to make one was to buy an over-the-counter RGB scart lead and adapt it using the details found here -

The only problem you may encounter is sourcing the 23-pin connector and hood, although a 25-pin connector can be hacked to suit.

The image quality using RGB to an LCD or plasma is very good.

Mine cost around a fiver to make a couple of years ago!

1.5m RGB scart from Aldi @ £2 (surprisingly good quality)
Jack plugs and a little bit of shielded 2 core cable @ £1
23-pin connector & hood @ £2
Resistors @ 4p
