They MAY bolt right in... or not. Do the holt holes on the new seat sliders line up with the bolt holes in your car? If not you will have to figure out how to adapt the new sliders to the car's bolt holes.
Another consideration is seat height. New seats may put your head closer to the roof. Are you tall? Do you have a sunroof? Stuff to consider.

They will not bolt into a 1G/3G. They do bolt into a DC Integra, as I have those identical seats in mine. They are one of the lowest stock Honda seats you can get, so I doubt headroom would be a problem. I would fab some mounts to get them in, they are great seats!

I don't know if this has been formally stated, but if you want to put those into a 1G/3G, find a pair of seats that are disposable and remove the seat pan. Then, go to an upholstery place and ask them to swap the seat pans from the seats you just decimated to the del sol seats. That ought'ta do it. I can assure you that once that is done, they'll be a perfect fit.

No idea. They aren't overly light or heavy. Lighter than the average Honda seat, I would say.
And TAAGMAN, I don't see that working, the seats are very different.
