Swapping number plates?

How do you go about swapping number plates from one car to another and vice versa?

If you own both cars do you still have to pay charges or do you just ring up the DVLA and tell them you've swapped them over?

Cheers

You just get a Phillips screwdriver, and remove the two screws holding each plate.

Unless your plate is stuck on with velcro of course, in which case you just remove it.

So if I had two cars and wanted to swap, does that mean that I would have to pay £80 twice as a number plate would be put on twice as there is two cars involved with the swap!
