Power lock conversion question

Ok, so I was wanting to convert my manual locks to power but my installer wouldn't do it. He said that cutting into the cable would weakin it and therefore the locking mechanism would quit working eventually and I'd have to replace the cables and that equals big money I'm sure. I know some of you have already installed them yourselves. So my question is, have any of you had any problems since? Or does anyone know from personal experience with cable locks in other vehicles know of any problems with the cable weakening from cutting into it? I really appreciate your help cause I forgot how sucky manual locks are, but I don't wanna hurt my new baby. Thanks
