I managed to find a PowerBook Video adapter on ebay for a very affordable $3 ($9 with shipping). The item came in its original 1992 Apple packaging and worked out of the box with my PowerBook 180 when I plugged it in to my PC monitor (requires another adapter). The adapter works with the following vintage PowerBook models:
PowerBook 1400c/117
PowerBook 1400c/133
PowerBook 1400c/166
PowerBook 1400cs/117
Powerbook 1400cs/133
Powerbook 1400cs/166
PowerBook 190
PowerBook 190cs
PowerBook 520
PowerBook 520c
PowerBook 5300
PowerBook 5300c
PowerBook 5300ce
PowerBook 5300cs
PowerBook 540
PowerBook 540c
PowerBook 550c [Japan Only]
PowerBook 160/165/180
PowerBook 165c/180c
You can find it here: http://cgi.ebay.com/Macintosh-PowerBook-Video-Cable-for-older-pwrbooks-New_W0QQitemZ350161898506QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item5187468c0a&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12|66%3A2|39%3A1|72%3A1205|240%3A1318|301%3A1|293%3A1|294%3A50
I'm not selling this item, I was just pleased with how inexpensive it was and thought others might be interested in it as well. It's nice to see my PowerBook in color!

Inexpensive cost but they are trying to charge me $56.80 to ship to Canada...
