Have any of the 'nuts hacked one of the very simple very cheap GPS USB
devices for your car top to see if there is an available 1 sec tick inside
one of them somewhere?

I took one apart.  It had a GPS module with a part number that was easy to
look up on the web.  Yes, it had a PPS.

This has a 1PPS pin (pin 40) - don't know if it is brought out onto the
board but it's there.
