Default help with baffles

My brother finally got the baffles from the guy i bought my bike from. he said they look kinda like glass packs for a car and look like they have catalytic converters on them wrapped in fiberglass. my bike is so loud it makes my right ear numb so i want to try to put them back in when i get them from him. is it pretty simple? it's supposed to have slip ons but they may be what came on the bike, i'm not sure. they say harley on them, it has a stage two screaming eagle upgrade but they pipes dont say screamin eagle on them. maybe somebody can tell by my pic. Is it possible to make them a little louder if they're too quiet for my liking? thanks

What ever you do can be undone, It is also possible to partially unwrap them, but you best go buy a 20$ bag of that insulation before you start because once that stuff melts it's a little hard to remove some and yet leave some of the old ****! Last time I did that I wrapped only the back half of the Q-baffle, and it worked pretty good.
