I have changed pads on my motorcycles but never attempted on a car....I am assuming it's the same but not sure. Is it as easy as prying apart the calipers and swapping pads or are there more difficulties involved?

If it just takes removing some wheels and popping out some pads, maybe I can just switch back and forth?
As long as both pad compounds are compatible, nothing else needs to be done other than a straight pad swap. If they are not compatible, you should change rotors as well. Talk to whoever you are purchasing pads from to make sure the right choices are made here, or you will be in for a bit more trouble than you might expect.
