Default Installing baffles

I need to install a set of quiet baffles on a set of VH BigShots staggered. I don't want to pay the dealer to do it. Can someone please point me in the right direction to doing it myself? Or post a link to some instructions?

Thanks,
Jeremy

I dont know about V & H but it really is pretty simple. There should be some sort of set screw that holds the baffle in. Unscrew it, yank the baffle out, put the new one in and put the screw back in. You should not pay a dealer to do that.......

The screw is probally hidden behind the chrome heat shield,so you may need to loosen them up to find the screw...
