If your scared about unlocking bootloader you shouldn't be even talking about Cwm

Cwm needs kernel replacement which needs unlocked bootloader

And also what are you planning to do with Cwm on locked bootloader..... Pretty much everything cwm needs unlocked bootloader

I'm not scared about unlocking bootloader. My phone says that I'm not allowed to unlock bootloader. I want to install cyanogenmod to boost my phone. There are many ways to install cwm on locked bootloader but not exactly for my phone. For example this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2187363

So you have read that you can for other models but not for your Xperia E - My Z1 has CWM with a locked bootloader

If interested this thread has a list with links to most thing Xperia E and the nature of your topic
