Not sure what you mean.

Use `delete-selection-mode' to type over selected text (region).
To automatically have the initial value be preselected in the minibuffer,
use `preselect-start' or `preselect-end' as the value of
`icicle-init-value-flag', depending on where you want the cursor to be.
I use `insert' as the value, because I don't want the initial input
preselected. I generally edit it only slightly - I don't want to replace it
entirely.

(define-key icicle-mode-map [f5] 'whatever-you-want)
Put that on `icicle-mode-hook' if you want.
Or, if you also do not want other top-level commands rebound by Icicles,
customize option `icicle-bind-top-level-commands-flag' to nil.
