Yes they do bypass the modulator - they plug straight into the RGB and phono sockets on the back of the A500 and the other end goes into the scart socket on your TV - I woulnt pay any more than a tenner for one TBH...

40 quid my arse. They are less than £10 always.

You probably cannot make your own as you'll never get a 23-pin D connector these days.

Yes, the Kabel Spezialist produces high quality audio/video/computer cables. Just purchased a RGB cable via eBay for 12,50 € plus 3,00 € postage. Postage for UK would be 7,00 €.
