Where in SA can I get halogen headlamp globes such as Sylvania Silverstar Ultras or ZXE's or will I have to import myself?
 
What are the prices on those? And how much better are they than the normal R50 bulbs?

Your local friendly Midas store. :)

Autozone would be a better bet because Midas doesn't always have stock. The times I tried at Midas, they always had availability issues but Autozone always has stock. I think the reason for this could be that Midas stock mainly vehicle parts, not accessories so much, and although headlamps would be considered a vehicle part, aftermarket halogens could be considered more of an accessory than an essential vehicle part.
 
I know that the ZXE H11's go for $47 and 9005's for $38 on Amazon, so wouldn't even like to venture a guess on what they retail for here.

I very much doubt that either Midas or Autozone stock them but I'll pay them a visit.
 
The Chinese shop were selling H4 and H11 bulbs for R15 (yes R15) each. Probably junk, but not everything there is. Got a 220 volt/USB power adaptor for R 20,00 and took it to pieces. Quite a fancy switched mode PSU in there, cannot figure how it could be so cheap
 
Popped into Midas this morning and they only have the standard Osram & Bosch globes. Looks like I'll have to import myself.
