I tried this also, but I think i'm approaching this totaly wrong, I get 
very small diffrence when changing those values.

Here is the params i'm using :

char * from[] = {
        "proj=latlong",
        "datum=WGS84"
};


char *to[] = {
        "proj=tmerc",
        "ellps=bessel",
//      "towgs84=-414.0978567149,-41.3381489658,-603.0627177516,-0.8550434314,2.1413465,-7.0227209516,1",
        "towgs84=414.0978567149,41.3381489658,603.0627177516,0.8550434314,-2.1413465,7.0227209516,1",
        "lon_0=15d48'29.8\"E",
        "k=1.00",
        "y_0=0",
        "x_0=1500000",
        "units=m"
};
then pj_transform..

I'm sure i'm missing something big here, I just don't know what...
