The samba is a great place to find a used blue box - and it may or may not work, it just depends. There is an aftermarket solution like the one listed here for the 1966 Beetle. I have used this one in the past with success.

Here is the one I got for my last 66 and it worked great, $84.00 from Bughaus.com:
