$10 "fit-Headless" dongle should do it:

When using screen sharing to control my headless Mac Mini, I find it useful to define custom display resolutions other than the default resolutions available with such a dongle (in particular, 1680x900). I use SwitchResX for that purpose:

(Disclaimer: I haven't used that dongle myself. Before it became available, I bought the more expensive Gefen DVI Detective.)
