but, when I clicked on the wifi symbol (it was an empty triangle) on the mac task bar it stated I had "no wifi hardware detected" so it looks like its not going to work?

You need to fix the device id in the kext or use the dsdt patch from the 4x30s series, i would guess. But isn't the other one better anyways?
That sure sounds like a simple and safe solution, because putting your faith in notebooks BIOS settings, will disappoint you more often then not.
Anyways, I found this scheme:

This should give us an idea where to start, probably there are other options too as you say, cutting power off...
Then we only need one of this adapters to make the install solid:

EDIT:
I just ordered an used AR5B93, got it for 4.65 pounds so i couldn't resist the temptation, fingers crossed.

i would really like to understand why disabling BT in the 4530s bios is ignored by OSX.
Probably BIOS is just setting a bit somewhere (in memory) for the driver to recognize (later) as "disabled," so it is totally dependent on software -- software not present in the OS X case.
Probably they didn't want bother with adding hardware that could cut power to the device to keep it from being visible on the PCIe bus...
So der is no hope for AR9485 Wireless Network Adapter !
Then how come Bluetooth is detected !
