First, you'll need a radio. If there isn't a hole in the dash the right size for the radio you'll need to cut one or mount it underneath the dash or in the glovebox. There is a spare fuse location in the standard fuse box (furthest to the right on the Australian model, if I remember right) which is provided by the factory for an optional radio. Wire power to that, earth to any metal part of the body behind the dash. Depending on the radio, you'll probably need both a switched and unswitched power input, check different fuses with a multimeter and turn the key on and off to find what you need. If you don't understand so far, pay a professional to do it.
If you don't have any speakers yet, there are holes in the metal behind the door trims for a shallow round speaker of about 5" diameter, and you can cut holes in the door trims and stick them in there. Most modern speakers are too deep and you'll need to buy or build some spacers or door pods for the speakers, or put them somewhere else, like in a wooden parcel shelf behind the back seat. There would be room behind the back seat for plenty of audio gear, and the rear side panels might be an option as well.
I've seen speakers in front kick panels and underneath the dash as well but don't like them in that location. Of course, there's always the standard position of a single speaker behind the dash next to the speedometer!

How to wire a new horn on a 1973 VW Superbeetle?
There are two things you have to know about Super Beetle horns: they're under the front left fender, and Volkswagen doesn't switch the power. They switch the GROUND!!! Why, I have no idea. Anyway, to wire a new horn you need to first mount the new horn. Once it's on, get about ten feet of lamp cord, and thread it through the firewall. Hook one wire to your fusebox. Hook the other to the horn switch in the steering wheel.
